I am confused. I did not know there was an Intelligence failure.

I thought this "Intelligence Failure" was an MSM/Leftist propaganda tool to inflame their minions and get the vote out.

The U.S. stated objectives in going to war against Saddam was due to his violations of U.N. orders, sanctions, ceasefire agreements, and most importantly, Post-9/11 dictum than rogue nations would not be tolerated.

So how does this "Intelligence Failure" still play a role unless the Left has become so muddled that they have actually forgotten their own play-book and now believe their postulates.

It's hypocritical of these commie scum to call it an "intelligence failure", when they purposefully promote those who want to undermine the system (John Kerry and his $6b in intelligence cuts).

"The U.S. stated objectives in going to war against Saddam was due to his violations of U.N. orders, sanctions, ceasefire agreements, and most importantly, Post-9/11 dictum than rogue nations would not be tolerated."

A very good set of points, which to often are forgotten, not understood to begin with, or simply ignored. We did not go into Iraq simply on the premise they had WMD programs in progress. I posted a couple minutes ago to urge folks to at least examine parts of the report. I did so, in belief one should at least know what such a report says and not take third party analysis as being factual, precicely correct etc.. The POTUS will probably not re-iterate in a carefully prepared public announcement the list by which the United States and the willing coalition partners used to decide to take the bum out. Surely WMD production was only one issue of many that took us to war. But I can say this. The report does not point a negative finger at the POTUS, nor the Department of State, nor the Congress for the authorization to take actions against the state of Iraq.
