Put simply, <strong>what this means is that one or more individuals within SISMI must have fabricated the &quot;accord&quot; (i.e., the &quot;verbatim text&quot; of the accord).<\/strong><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Now, some people may think it is incredulous that an allegedly sophisticated intelligence agency could have participated in the creation of such bogus materials. However, as I remarked recently in a detailed post discussing the forgeries and the question of motive:<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&#8230;<strong>the Niger forgeries hoax was <em>not<\/em> just about the <em>creation<\/em> of the forgeries<\/strong><em>.<\/em> <strong>It was <em>primarily<\/em> about <u>how the forgeries were <em>intended<\/em> <em>to be used<\/em><\/u><\/strong>. Put another way, <strong>the quality of the original forgeries would be largely irrelevant to bad actors who intended to &quot;mainstream&quot; the contents in a manner that preserved &quot;plausibility&quot;, while being able to cover their a** by attributing the &quot;intel&quot; to a documentary source that they would never have to reveal<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>[&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><strong>The picture that emerges is a campaign by some individuals within the Italian intelligence agency, SISMI, to systematically provide known-fraudulent information to the Bush administration to help them in their aggressive PR campaign against Iraq<\/strong>. This campaign rivals those of fraudsters linked to the Iraqi National Congress (INC) and is arguably more serious in nature considering how it helped the Bush White House build a <em>nuclear<\/em> case for war. It is therefore naturally puzzling and disappointing that the U.S. mainstream media and the U.S. Congress have shown far less seriousness and interest in investigating and revealing the role played by SISMI in this matter, in comparison to the focus on the INC. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>And there&#8217;s an unanswered question in <font color=\"#330066\"><strong>eriposte<\/strong><\/font>&#8216;s revelations, &quot;Why was there &#8216;<strong>a campaign by some individuals within the Italian intelligence agency, SISMI, to systematically provide known-fraudulent information to the Bush administration to help them in their aggressive PR campaign against Iraq<\/strong>&#8216;?&quot; Did they do it on their own [to get in good with trhe U.S.], or did someone in our government conspire with them to have it done?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>P.D.
