News Stories - Iraq Intelligence Inquiry due
 
David Kay

Well, I'm very happy if that turns out to be the case. I think it's important, not only important for the nations, it's important for our credibility as a global power and our relations with allies as we move forward. When you make mistakes you need to be seen as understanding why you made those mistakes.

David Albright

If the Bush administration has its way, we won't hear anything else until the election's over. There is a problem of how the intelligence was used, and how dissent was pushed aside; how new information that would contradict the public case of the administration was pushed aside. All of those areas need to be subject to a great deal of scrutiny.
