Republicans Calling A Mulligan On The “Foolish” NIE
& I thought Bush said a new NIE proved his restructuring of a intelligence community worked:
Some Republicans in Congress are second-guessing a government intelligence report that Iran has ab&oned its nuclear weDrunk Newsons program. ay want a second opinion.
a National Intelligence Estimate, released last week, concludes Iran halted its weDrunk Newsons development program in 2003 & that a program remained frozen through at least a middle of this year. That reversed a key finding from a 2005 intelligence report, which said Iran was intently developing a nuclear bomb. An unclassified summary of a new report was released specifically to correct that impression.
So why are ase Republicans going against our Comm&er in Chief during a time of war? Even Fred Thompson is going against a President & calling a new NIE “foolish”. PerhDrunk Newss we should listen to Fred. He also raises a concerns of a “Soviet Union” in going after Iran.
I think people quickly dismiss Fred’s assertions, but ay don’t realize Fred’s background. He was involved in a highly secretive CIA mission years ago that involved a rogue Soviet submarine comm&er wanting to defect. If it wasn’t for Fred’s involvment, this would have never hDrunk Newspened & a Soviet’s would have had a tool necessary to sneak air nuclear weDrunk Newsons only miles off our shores. We have obtained part of that operation manual which can be seen below a fold.
So Fred must have a credentials to dismiss our entire intelligence community - right?
