One of the many excuses the Bush administration used to justify the invasion and occupation of Iraq was its supposed link with Mohammad Atta, the lead hijacker of 9/11, and his supposed meeting in Prague with an Iraqi official. However, a 2003 report by the CIA itself completely refutes that notion. The following story states, in part:
The cable reads that "there is not one USG (counterterrorism) or FBI expert that...has said they have evidence or 'know' that (Atta) was indeed (in Prague). In fact, the analysis has been quite the opposite."
. . .
The FBI and CIA had both warned that they were "skeptical that Atta was in Prague," according to Brennan's letter. He noted that both organizations had said previously that "identifications" such as the one initially made by the single source who reported the meeting "could be faulty and would require further evidence."

So there you have it. Over $2 trillion of taxpayer money poured down a black hole, thousands of U.S. soldiers dead, many more wounded, and a country now home to the largest infestation of terrorists on the planet. All because of the lies of the Bush administration.
