I'm really learning lot on your blog. Someone like me had thought that the 2001 Washington Post revelation about Iraq training plane hijackers was a mere joke.
INC knew what the Bush administration wanted so found Iraqi defectors that were talking about WMD, terrorism, Al Qaeda, etc. and came up with things like plane hijacking training.
