Ray McGovern of Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity has a new article in Counterpunch, Deceived into War.

Powell said it was "nonsense" to brand as "bogus" the intelligence adduced to justify making war on Iraq. But, sadly, "bogus" is precisely the correct word to apply to the key piece of "evidence" used to deceive our representatives and senators into voting to give President Bush permission to launch an unprovoked war on Iraq.

However strong a word, "bogus" pales in comparison with the seven-letter F-word to which Powell and Rice showed themselves allergic: F for forgery.
