9. Hersh needs to back away from those people that are trying...
Edited on Mon Oct-20-03 10:29 PM by Media_Lies_Daily
...to tell him that the CIA was not doing its primary mission, that of gathering information and reporting it accurately. In fact, the CIA and the UN inspectors were in COMPLETE AGREEMENT in regards to their independent assessmants of Iraq. Both organizations reported on a repeated basis that there were no WMDs in Iraq, and there had been none since the UN had reported the weapons destroyed in 1995.

What Hersh is being told is nothing more than an attempt to push attention away from the NeoCons who were fabricating anything and everything to push the U. S. into war with Iraq.

Hersh has to zero back in and find out who Herr Bunnypants trusted the most to provide him with the justification to go to war. The fact that intelligence assets were moved from Al Qaeda surveillance programs to Iraqi surveillance programs despite the strong protests of both the CIA and the FBI should give Hersh some major clues.
