I agree with many of Kay's statements from yesterday - especially the detailed ones. I do not agree with a blanket statement of "this was a [insert adjective here] intelligence failure." By him or anyone. It's not accurate.

But Dr. Kay does a fine job of clarifying exactly what he means, no matter what the headlines imply.

The facts intelligemce agencies gather are facts that are not easily available, there is always attempts to keep them from them. Probably almost never is any intelligence report a complete, 100%, iron clad word for word absolute Truth. Great job on Iraq, CIA! Saddam knew what was being said about his WMD's, the burden of proof was on him.
