Have I read somewhere the possiblity that Hussein knew he had destroyed the WMD but didn't want his people to know that, or is that my own idea? (The other possibilities I know of are that either they still exist, or that his subordinates wanted him to think they were maintaining a WMD program, but found it easier and more lucrative not to do so. If the latter turns out to be true, someone in the CIA needs to figure out to quit making the mistake of relying on internal bureaucratic communication in despotic regimes for our intelligence; not a generation ago we were overestimating the Soviet economy because the people in a position to know found it in their interests to deceive their leadership as well.) |
