Intelligence Unglued

At the Nation Institute, Tom Engelhardt publishes an open memo from Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity to the president. They present a jarring rundown of the intelligence failures and abuses and make three suggestions:

1. Fire Dick Cheney.
2. Appoint Brent Scowcroft to head an independent investigation into the use and abuse of intelligence regarding Iraq.
3. Get UN weapons inspectors back into Iraq.

Worth the read, along with Tom's comments that precede it.
