 Source of Iraq-Qaeda link suspected liar: report

NEW YORK (Reuters) - A top al Qaeda operative in U.S. custody was 
identified as a probable liar months before the Bush administration 
began using his claims as the basis of its contention that Iraq trained 
al Qaeda members to use biological and chemical weapons, The New York 
Times reported in Sunday editions.

Citing newly declassified portions of a Defense Intelligence Agency 
document from February 2002 made available to the Times by Michigan 
Sen. Carl Levin  of the Armed Services Committee, the paper reported it 
was likely that the prisoner, Ibn al-Shaykh al-Libi, was intentionally 
misleading debriefers about Iraqi support for al Qaeda's work with 
illicit weapons.
"It is possible he does not know any further details; it is more likely 
this individual is intentionally misleading the debriefers," the Times 
quoted the report as saying. "Ibn al-Shaykh has been undergoing 
debriefs for several weeks and may be describing scenarios to the 
debriefers that he knows will retain their interest."
The document provides the earliest and strongest indication of U.S. 
intelligence agencies' doubts about Libi's credibility, the Times said. 
President George W. Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, then-Secretary of 
State Colin Powell and other administration officials cited his input 
as "credible" evidence that Iraq was training al Qaeda members in 
explosives and illicit weapons use, the Times said. The officials did 
not mention Libi by name at the time.
But Bush, in a speech in October 2002, said, "We've learned that Iraq 
has trained al Qaeda members in bomb-making and poisons and gases."
Levin said the evidence of early doubts about Libi illustrated what he 
called the administration's misuse of intelligence to justify the war 
in Iraq, the Times said.
As an official intelligence report the document would have circulated 
widely and would have been available to the CIA, the White House, the 
Pentagon and other agencies, the Times said. But it was unclear whether 
it was provided to the Senate panel.
A Bush administration official declined to comment to the newspaper on 
the report on Libi, who was captured in Pakistan late in 2001 and 
recanted his claims in January of last year. At the time he was the 
most senior al Qaeda member in U.S. custody, and is likely being held 
at Guantanamo Bay, the Times said.
Levin also noted a portion of the D.I.A. report that expressed 
skepticism about the idea of close collaboration between Iraq and al 
Qaeda, an idea never substantiated by U.S. intelligence but which was a 
pillar of the Bush administration's prewar claims, the Times reported.

Leggi bene l'articolo: a chiederlo, di fatto, è il senatore Levin, non un
fessacchiotto qualsiasi come te.

non un fessacchiotto qualsiasi come te.
E il fatto di essere un senatore in che modo non lo renderebbe un
fessacchiotto qualsiasi come te? :)

Ti consiglio di rileggerti (anzi, leggerti, perchè senz'altro non lo hai mai
fatto prima) la costituzione USA. Scoprirai il ruolo del senato, e scoprirai
che negli USA un senatore (soprattutto di uno stato come il Michigan) non è
un fessacchiotto qualsiasi come te.

Quindi la questione è: fesso o intelligente che sia il senatore Levin, il
presidente USA gli *deve* rispondere (questo strumento esiste anche in
Italia, e si chiama "interpellanza parlamentare"...)

Mah, io terrei d'occhio il Sen. Rockfeller e il Sen.Kerry, altri noti
