The Lies that Led to the Iraq WarThe George Washington University National Security Archive recently published a newly released CIA document from January 2006 titled “Misreading Intentions: Iraq’s Reaction to Inspection Created Picture of Deception”.

The document, the Archive notes, “blames ‘analyst liabilities’ such as neglecting to examine Iraq’s deceptive behavior ‘through an Iraqi prism,’ for the failure to correctly assess the country’s virtually non-existent WMD capabilities.” Foreign Policy magazine describes it as a “remarkable CIA mea culpa”.

Those of us who can remember popping the Allman Brothers into the 8-track tape deck can identify with Voyagers 1 and 2 - a couple of nearly old fogies. But these NASA stalwarts are set to make space history. Again.
