Will Bush plant WMDs?
Maybe that's part of they're strategy to hit back against against the truth.

5. How?
That would be nearly impossible since he already admitted that there are no WMD there.

He just hedges his bets by saying he was fed misleading information, not that he was feeding misleading information.

7. KingFlorez -- I found this over at Bartcop.com
Subject: why Bush didn't plant WMDs

> "The mystery is why Bush hasn't planted some WMDs in Iraq."

The reason for this is that's Plame's covert anti-proliferation task force intercepted at least two attempts to smuggle chemical agents into into the country that looked very suspicious for BushCo.

So on top of everything else, preventing the BFEE's "planting the WMD" plan was certainly a prime reason for blowing her cover, disabling her task force, and preventing her from foiling
any other evil plots they might be hatching.

So there was more motive behind the outing than simple revenge against her husband. ValPlame's operation was a threat to them.

8. On old rumor
was that an odd team attempting to do just that was destroyed by friendly fire. I don't know what happened to that story or to whatever they were setting. If not true I wonder where that story came from. If true one wonders about the hidden fatalities of people on special missions, the claims that british and Americans were setting up terrorist bombs lately and numerous other details hidden light years beyond the wall of secrecy and the obvious lies of the WH that remain unpunished.

The pattern of this team is to go for the easy stuff, let the idiots who don't need to know the big picture do all their little dirty work(so far unchallenged and protected) and let the whole thing add up to a mammoth fulfillment of a hidden agenda with plausible deniability over all more firmly protected than any right in the Constitution.

The way they wound up the yellow cake boondoggle and threw it out their scornfully wrapped in bully talk poses the argument:

Would they sloppily dare anything(ACTUALLY planting evidence) they seemingly trust to power and talk to bluff out of? Or would they, as natural cowards and indolent incompetents rely on smoke and mirrors? After all, if they are going to get away with anything why risk letting those patriotic schmucks they must enlist at some level for hardware ops when the UN ploy is only a word game anyway? After all, they barely prepared well for actual operations and had a bees nest of real patriotic Intel people aroused who might get in the way- which was causing enough trouble as it was. Containment was a very big and they thought they had covered and buried all their bases before Wilson blew the whistle.

I think they were more afraid of the Intel community in huge dangerous sections blowing their whole scheme apart as much as or more than one more editorial voice saying the Intel was phony.

There is a range of suspicion that covers intricate plots covering an ingenious range of detail to a sloppy bully/lie gambit that simply counterfeits policy with stolen presses. Even the Third Reich, forgive the controversial intrusion, was riddled with sloppy organization and bluff more than infernal efficiency. Bureaucracy was duplicated for the sake of glorified cronies, waste and counter productive competitive agencies, simply turning loose the eager performers on ground level who
got things done for the turds in charge. As time went on it became easy to find people naturally doing anything for the Reich on the practical levels.

Here, for now, most doers are operating under a grander illusion of American idealism and national interest as they are moved about by the schemers in the regime. With so much American dominant power the cowards in the WH naturally settle for smoke and mirrors. They like to think of this as risk free and the risks they take with lies and cheating as bold, at least bold enough. Which is why Rove, not Colin Powell, was always the central director of policy method.
