Who Doctored The Reports?

The LA Times notes the discrepancy between the classified and unclassified 2002 Iraq assessments.

The classified version of the report stated, 'Iraq has some lethal and incapacitating BW [biological weapons] agents and is capable of quickly producing a variety of such agents for delivery.' The unclassified version added, 'potentially against the U.S. homeland.'

One Senate staffer told the Times that former CIA chief George Tenet and another top official were asked by committee members about who was behind such changes. 'They did not know and could not explain,' said the unnamed aide.
