White House ordered forgery to justify war with Iraq

"Bombshell!" -- Wolf Blitzer just now, adjusting his shorts.

Bringing what and what back to DC?? BuzzFlash adds, "Another bombshell that should lead to impeachment but won't." Yeah, we're looking at you, Nancy Pelosi/most of the Defeatocrap party.

A new book by [Pulitzer Prize winning] author Ron Suskind claims that the Bush White House ordered the CIA to forge a back-dated, handwritten letter from the head of Iraqi intelligence to Saddam Hussein.

Suskind writes in “The Way of the World,” to be published Tuesday, that the alleged forgery –- adamantly denied by the White House -– was designed to portray a false link between Hussein’s regime and al Qaeda as a justification for the Iraq war.

The author also claims that the Bush administration had information from a top Iraqi intelligence official “that there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq –- intelligence they received in plenty of time to stop an invasion.”
