American who advised Pentagon says he wrote for magazine that found forged Niger documents
A controversial neoconservative who occasionally consulted for the Bush Defense Department has confirmed that he was a contributor to the Italian magazine Panorama, whose reporter first came across forged documents which purported that Iraq was seeking to obtain uranium from Niger.
The bogus documents became the basis for the infamous sixteen words in President Bush’s 2003 State of the Union Address, in which he detailed his case for war. Their origin has been one of the most persistent mysteries in how American intelligence on Iraq was so wrong.</i>
So a major neo-con hawk just happens to be working for the magazine that “finds” the Niger forgeries?
My, wasn’t that handy.
