So, you are saying that in 2002, a major intelligence agency
concluded that Iraq had no WMD stockpiles of any kind?
No. You've inverted the statement. The NIE, as well as Tenet in
later public statements about that NIE, said that they believed
that Iraq had stockpiles of chemical and biological agents, but
they were not weaponized.
And this was before the war? And they concluded that *none* of the
stockpiles were weaponized.
Well, given that one of the most important comms stations in the
eastern med *lowered* the threat status in the weeks running up to
the war, I'd say so.
