Since early 1991 a host of participants in FR who have knowledge of the intelligence committee have called for Tenet's resignation. Not only did he misread badly the Iraqi situation, but he presided over an organization that took part in questionble hires and thus increased the politicization of the CIA itself.
Sorry, write in haste... That should be since 2001 FR people with knowledge of the intelligence community have called for Tenet's resignation.
agreed. this is long overdue.
although, Tenet wasn't head of the CIA in 1991.
I just actually heard dasshole says he needs facts before he comments....ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
In what respects did he misread the Iraqi situation ?
Right! It is important to focus on the specific weaknesses of the CIA under Clinton, rather than the specific intelligence inaccuracies regarding Iraq's WMD programs. There needs to be a new era at Central Intelligence to hire, promote, and leverage tip-top talent.
