The CIA et al have finally called off their fruitless search for weapons of mass destruction in Iraq:
“We thought we found a big storage of nerve agent,” said Charles A. Duelfer, who led the weapons hunt in 2004, “but it just turned out to be some old havarti cheese.”
All right, that’s not what he really said. Here’s an actual chunk of the article:
Four months after Charles A. Duelfer, who led the weapons hunt in 2004, submitted an interim report to Congress that contradicted nearly every prewar assertion about Iraq made by top Bush administration officials, a senior intelligence official said the findings will stand as the ISG’s final conclusions and will be published this spring.
Well, let’s all thank the US government for delivering us from the scourge of WMDs. Ironically, one of the reasons the weapons hunters cited for leaving was “the violence in Iraq”.
