THE WAR FOR DISTRACTION, cont.
Crusader Bunnypants is Politicizing Intelligence Agencies to Fabricate Iraq Lies
The Detroit Free Press reports: "Senior U.S. officials with access to top secret intelligence about Iraq said they have detected no alarming increase in the threat posed to U.S. security and regional stability by Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein... There are no indications that Iraq has obtained the plutonium or enriched uranium needed for a nuclear bomb. Nor [is] Iraq poised to unleash chemical or biological weapons against Israel or other countries in the region... The officials insisted on anonymity because of ... an apparent desire not to be seen as disputing administration policy.
Their views "contrast sharply with Vice President Dick Cheney's warnings that Hussein will soon have a nuclear weapon or supply a weapon of mass destruction to terrorists. Those warnings are fueling the administration's drive to convince skeptical allies, members of Congress and the American public that the war on terror's next military front may be Iraq.
"Evidence actually suggests that Hussein has been careful to keep Al Qaeda at arm's length to avoid giving Bush an excuse to invade Iraq...Hussein is more concerned with eliminating any domestic threat to his grip on power and ensuring that he is succeeded by one of his two sons, Uday and Qusai."
