Remember the Italian Connection?

I know I've been harping on this, but I think this is the real story. Did the White House manufacture the yellowcake intelligence? A small blip of Peter Lee's article may whet your appetite for the entire article over at Smirking Chimp.

The Smirking Chimp: "The Bush administration knowingly and intentionally recruited Berlusconi's help to generate fraudulent intelligence in Italy about Iraq's nuclear activities that could be laundered through British intelligence, thereby rendering it untraceable and unexaminable - and legitimized by MI6. Then it was stovepiped to the White House national security apparatus, and cynically purveyed to the American public by Bush and his foreign policy team as high quality, actionable intelligence justifying pre-emptive attack on Iraq."
