WTF Is It Now?!?

Weapons of self-delusion
Bush and Blair in deep doo-doo.

June 8, 2003: Snipped from The Observer:

One official told the New York Times: 'As an employee of the Defence Intelligence Agency, I know this administration has lied to the public to get support for its attack on Iraq.'

It is a view that is gaining increasing currency among the former US spooks who speak for the intelligence bureaucracies. But it is not only the suspicion that the intelligence has been deliberately manipulated by Pentagon hawks that has emerged in the last week.

Others have claimed that huge pressure was put on the intelligence agencies, by Cheney himself, to come up with the goods required to start a war and who, sources claimed last week, made repeated visits to the CIA creating a culture of fear within the organisation.
