Wayne Masden has got a bucket full of leaking spooks.

Who're running scared are Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and the rest of the treasonous slugs and turds.

I'm so glad.

Intelligence Whispers

CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA, June 29, 2005 -- More corruption and intelligence fabrication has been revealed in the U.S. intelligence community. In the case of the National Ground Intelligence Center (NGIC) in Charlottesville, Virginia, the focus is on how imagery intelligence prior to Operation Iraqi Freedom was fabricated as a justification for the attack and occupation of Iraq. In addition, in a violation of White House, intelligence, and U.S. Army directives, intelligence databases were altered to justify expensive weapons programs like the canceled Comanche helicopter and the Crusader mobile artillery system.

According to NGIC insiders, after coming to power, the Bush neo-conservatives in the Pentagon began exaggerating the numbers of Russian combat helicopters. Moreover, Cold War analysts at NGIC began altering intelligence databases to increase the number of Russian helicopters by counting damaged and cannibalized Russian helicopters as fully operational. The more numerous damaged and cannibalized helicopters were then reclassified as "new" and "moved" to Russian military bases near conflict zones like the Trans-Caucusus to give the appearance that they represented a greater threat to U.S. national security. This cooking of threat intelligence was done to justify systems like The Carlyle Group/United Defense Industries' Crusader artillery system. However, Donald Rumsfled disliked the Crusader and canceled the project with a huge contract termination fee going to Carlyle and his friend and Princeton roommate, then-Carlyle head Frank Carlucci.

Other intelligence cooking involved counting Iraqi surface-to-air missile (SAM) batteries without radar as fully operational. As one NGIC analyst recalled, "without radar, SAMs are ineffectual."

One NGIC insider recalled how the Bush administration cooked the intelligence on the alleged Iraqi aluminum tubes claimed to be for use in Iraqi nuclear centrifuges: "As the person who briefed Colin Powell , Cheney , and Pete Williams about Iraq's Italian artillery rockets during Desert Storm, I knew those aluminum tubes were Egyptian knock offs of the Italian gun barrels we captured in 1991," the imagery intelligence (IMINT) analyst said. The analyst added that this fact about Iraq's procurement of the Egyptian artillery tubes after Desert Storm was well known to both Cheney and Powell.

The NGIC analyst said that the Pentagon neo-cons went to specialists at NGIC who had expertise on artillery rockets and got them to confirm the aluminum tubes were for nuclear centrifuges. The analyst emphasized that those specialists were not experts on centrifuges and had no place in making such assumptions. However, after the outbreak of the Iraq war, all the NGIC analysts who went along with the intelligence cooking were promoted rapidly. Those who questioned the intelligence manipulation were fired from their jobs and had their security clearances revoked.

The case is clear: BuschCo cooked the intel, yet again. And, like before, for profit.
