Bush orders panel to study prewar intelligence BY RAFAEL LORENTE
National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice, for example, apparently did not read footnotes in an intelligence report that cast doubt on allegations about Hussein's nuclear weapons program.
And Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld in September 2002 said Hussein had 'amassed large clandestine stockpiles of chemical weapons.' But the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Pentagon's own intelligence arm, had said that very month that there was ' no reliable information on whether Iraq (was) producing and stockpiling chemical weapons.'
Asked about it this week, Rumsfeld told the Senate: 'I'm sure I never saw that piece of intelligence.'
