Weapons inspector falsifies own WMD report!
From the Associated Press:
CIA's Final Report: No WMD in Iraq
My take:
Bullshit. Charles Duelfer himself said that his team had uncovered "10 or 12 mustard and sarin rounds" last June.
They didn't just magically appear out of the earth. Did Duelfer accept a bribe or something? Was he lying then? Or is he lying now? What gives?
What's amazing is that the editors at the Washington Post aren't following the story close enough to remember that Duelfer had already 1.) falsified their headline and 2.) falsified the substance of his own report. If, that is, they managed to characterize the report accurately.

CIA's Final Report: No WMD in Iraq
In his final word, the CIA’s top weapons inspector in Iraq said Monday that the hunt for weapons of mass destruction has “gone as far as feasible” and has found nothing, closing an investigation into the purported programs of Saddam Hussein that were used to justify the 2003 invasion.
“After more than 18 months, the WMD investigation and debriefing of the WMD-related detainees has been exhausted,” wrote Charles Duelfer, head of the Iraq Survey Group, in an addendum to the final report he issued last fall.
My take:
Bullshit. Charles Duelfer himself said that his team had uncovered "10 or 12 mustard and sarin rounds" last June.
They didn't just magically appear out of the earth. Did Duelfer accept a bribe or something? Was he lying then? Or is he lying now? What gives?
