Mitt Romney Flip-Flops On Iraq: GOP Candidate Says 'We Would Not Have Gone In' If We Knew There Were No Weapons Of Mass Destruction (VIDEO)

Indeed, a former high-level CIA analyst (who chaired National Intelligen­ce Estimates and personally delivered intelligen­ce briefings to Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush, their Vice Presidents­, Secretarie­s of State, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and many other senior government officials) says that falsified documents which were meant to show that Iraq’s Saddam Hussein regime had been trying to procure yellowcake uranium from Niger can be traced back to Dick Cheney, and that:

CIA Director George Tenet told his “coterie of malleable managers” at the CIA to create a National Intelligen­ce Estimate “to the terms of reference of Dick Cheney’s speech of August 26, 2002, where Dick Cheney said for the first time Saddam Hussein could have a nuclear weapon in a year, he’s got all kinds of chemical, he’s got all kinds of biological weapons.”


Pulitzer prize-winn­ing journalist Ron Suskind says:

Bush administra­tion had informatio­n from a top Iraqi intelligen­ce official “that there were no weapons of mass destructio­n in Iraq – intelligen­ce they received in plenty of time to stop an invasion.”
The Washington Post reports that a secret, fact-findi­ng team of scientists and engineers sponsored by the Pentagon determined in May 2003 that two small trailers captured by U.S. and Kurdish troops were not evidence of an Iraqi biological weapons program. The nine-membe­r team “transmitt­ed their unanimous findings to Washington in a field report on May 27, 2003.” Despite having authoritat­ive evidence that the biological laboratori­es claim was false, the administra­tion continued to repeat the myth over the next four months.
