I didn’t watch it. He claimed VP is a current covert agent? How covert can one be when you drive to the CIA everyday? Tenet must be looking for a position in a future Democrat administration. You’d think he would have had enough.
Tenet was bought with money or threats, perhaps both. Or maybe he has just been a lefty moe all along.
This obsession with finding weapons of mass destruction ignores the most important part of nuclear weapons development: the workforce necessary to design and assemble them.
The scientists, engineers, technicians, and assembly line workers are far more important than the physical materials. As long as Saddam kept his workforce intact, he would have been able to restart nuclear weapons development at any time.
Saddam regime did not produce the final Chemical Weapons products but was producing and researching the ingredients called Chemical Precursors required to make the final Chemical Weapons. The production of these Chemical Precursors took place from 1999-2002. They did so because if caught they can always claim that these dual materials are for civilian industries and also to deceive the people on these materials that they are doing so for civilian industries, also because the ingredients ( Chemical Precursors) have longer shelf life in storage than the final Chemical weapons. They produced these Precursors under a program called Pharmaceutical and Pesticides Project to give it a civilian industry name and for deception purposes as they called their previous nuclear program the Petrochemical 3 Project.
Saddam regime hid these Chemical Precursors in the Anbar province also called the Western desert.
The above conclusions and analysis are based on the many Iraqi documents that I read. I will not publicly post the possible locations of the Chemical Precursors as based on three documents I read, and that is because of security concerns. The terrorists who are very active in the Anbar province can get hold to these very dangerous chemical Precursors if they know its locations.
So what did he recommend be done to his buddy Richard Armitage, since he is the one that "outed" Plame.
Great points made by Mr. Hansen. Thanks for posting.
On the other hand, Tenet said he would expect U.S. troops will find caches of weapons of mass destruction, absolutely, were they to invade the country.
It's in the 5th paragraph.
- Mr Tenet, when you testified in 2003, BEFORE the invasion of Iraq, that the U.S. "will find caches of weapons of mass destruction, absolutely", did you believe what you were saying?
- Mr Tenet, when you testified in 2003, BEFORE the invasion of Iraq, that the U.S. "will find caches of weapons of mass destruction, absolutely", were you saying that because someone at the Whitehouse TOLD you to say that?
- "Mr Tenet, when you testified in 2003, BEFORE the invasion of Iraq, that the U.S. "will find caches of weapons of mass destruction, absolutely", did you knowingly lie to the United States Congress when you said that?
Will someone PLEASE give the Republican Senators their brains, and their GUTS, back?
Don't forget about the nuclear weapons program and material that Libya gave up so quickly once Saddam could not strong arm them anymore.
Let me know if you want in or out.

“Tenet refused to comment on Plame in particular, but said outing a CIA agent was wrong.”
Then tenet should seek the head of powell and armitage, since it was THOSE TWO LOSERS and novak that leaked her name! tenet is a dim and therefore the TRUTH is NOT in him!

Most people don’t realize how close most chemical weapons are in composition to common chemicals like pesticides and polyurethane paints. It’s not too hard to create a “dual use” chemical industry.
I know you will be shocked, but the name Armitage never came up in the whole interview! (at least the parts CBS chose to air)
