Once again, Jack Kelly is spinning things (see here and here for more).
This erstwhile champion of supposed former human-shield turned pro-war activist Kenneth Joseph seems to blame the CIA for any failures in Iraq.
"The CIA can be excused for believing Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction"
As if the CIA were the main agency pressing this line.
"but the CIA failed to detect Saddam's plan for protracted guerrilla war (the sudden collapse of the Republican Guard ought to have been a clue)"
Of course all of the people fighting us must be former regime loyalists, because every ordinary Iraqi LOVES us. And of course the fact that the Defense Department and the administration were pushing the line that everyone would greet us with flowers and love had nothing to do with this.
"or that Ahmed Chalabi of the Iraqi National Congress was a spy for Iran."
At least the CIA resisted putting Chalabi in power. Just Google "CIA" and "Chalabi". It was the folks at Defense who were in love with the guy. Why don't they bear any of the blame?
Obviously, this guy is a nothing more than a two-bit hack.
