BBC article on Bush’s adamancy in the face of the 9-11 counsel’s findings
Apparently, both sides agree there were contacts between the two groups, but the 9-11 counsel has concluded that there was no evidence that it led to any kind of working relationship between al-Qaeda and Iraq.
This ought to have serious consequences for the BushAdmin.
