Chalabi’s “intel” to be examined

Ah, it couldn’t happen to a “nicer” bunch of snake-oil salesmen! I read with delight a report I found via Yankeedoodle of Today in Iraq, that Ahmed Chalabi and his nefarious Iraqi National Congress will be having the information they supplied to the US prior to last year’s war specifically examined by W’s new Commission on the Intel (whatever it’s called.)
The good, well-reported Knight-Ridder story that Yankee sent me to says:

    Sens. Pat Roberts, R-Kan., and Jay Rockefeller, D-W.Va., the chair and vice chair of the Senate intelligence committee, announced Thursday that they are expanding a probe into prewar intelligence to include the use of information from the INC.

It’s a good story, in general. Read it. Thanks, Yankee!
By the way, Yankee also has two other great features on his blog. One is the listing that he works hard at, in which he tries to get something up on his blog about every US soldier killed in Iraq, presented to readers state-by-state. Since I’m a Virginia home-girl, I’m going to try to copy all the listings he makes for Virginia soldiers. Maybe I could start a special area of the blog to gather them all together on.
Here’s one from his latest post:
Local story: Virginia soldier killed in Iraq.
And here’s another little feature that he introduced onto his blog just three days ago:
86-43-04. Pass it on.

  1. Unfortunately, it seems that this call to investigate Chalabi&Co. stems not from W’s mock commission, but from the Senate investigation of intelligence failures. It’s still good news–but will Shrub’s commission take their cue from the Senate one? We can only hope.
