REPORT PROVES BUSH KNEW HE WAS LYING ABOUT IRAQ
Earlier this week, President Bush claimed "we all thought we would findstockpiles of weapons"[1] in Iraq, and claimed that he had no inkling thathis pre-war claims about the Iraqi threat were weak. But as a major newstory released today shows, the President and other top administrationofficials were repeatedly warned before the invasion that its case for warwas weak.The cover story for this month's In These Times analyzes declassifiedgovernment documents and intelligence reports given to the White Housebefore the war. These documents either warned the administration about itsWMD and Iraq-al Qaeda claims, or totally debunked them. In some cases,intelligence experts explicitly warned top officials not to make the claimsthey were making, and yet they were ignored. The story wholly refutesassertions by the White House and Republicans that it was the intelligencecommunity to blame. In fact, as the data shows, the White House deliberatelyignored intelligence to mislead America.Read the full article, with direct links to all source material, atwww.inthesetimes.com.
