3. Thank you.

This is an important topic. Doug Feith & friends are enemies of our Constitutional democracy.

Nominated.

Feith is certainly one repellent traitor, isn't he?

If there ever was an individual that should be extraordinarily renditioned at Abu Ghrabe or Gitmo, it's this crimes against humanity caliber criminal.

Pentagon `Undercut' CIA on Pre-War Intelligence, Probe Finds

By Tony Capaccio

April 5 (Bloomberg) -- Defense Department officials ``undercut'' the U.S. intelligence community when making a case to White House officials that Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein had a close relationship with the al-Qaeda terror network, the Pentagon inspector general said in a declassified report.

Analysts reporting to former Undersecretary for Policy Douglas Feith told then-Deputy National Security Adviser Stephen Hadley and Lewis Libby, the vice president's chief of staff, that there were ``fundamental problems with how the intelligence community is assessing information,'' the report shows.

The report concludes the Pentagon provided ``inappropriate'' analysis for its finding of a strong link between Hussein and al- Qaeda -- a finding that Vice President Dick Cheney cited as a rationale for invading Iraq along with the need to disarm the nation of weapons of mass destruction.

The criticism of the intelligence community is one of several on a slide used in the Sept. 16, 2002, White House briefing.

``The slide undercuts'' the CIA and other intelligence agencies, Acting Inspector General Thomas Gimble said in a letter to Senator Carl Levin of Michigan, chairman of the Armed Services Committee, who released the report today.
