from SLATE's news summary: >USA Today ...  leads with a newly released
CIA-sponsored report concluding that the administration—hold on to
your hats—covered its eyes when it came to prewar intel suggesting
that Iraq might unravel after Saddam's fall. The report, which was
written by former CIA guys and commissioned by former chief George
Tenet, concludes, "In an ironic twist, the policy community was
receptive to technical intelligence (the weapons program), where the
analysis was wrong, but apparently paid little attention to
intelligence on cultural and political issues (post-Saddam Iraq),
where the analysis was right."<
