We had Hans Blix, the UN's WMD inspector saying that they didn't have WMD.

Just fine, really.
Quote:Rowley testified in front of the Senate and for the 9/11 Commission about the FBI's internal organization and mishandling of information related to the September 11, 2001, attacks. Mueller and Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) pushed for and got a major reorganization, focused on creation of the new Office of Intelligence at the FBI. This reorganization was supported with a significant expansion of FBI personnel with counterterrorism and language skills.[citation needed]
Rowley retired from the FBI in 2004 after 24 years with the agency. She jointly held the TIME "Person of the Year" award in 2002 with two other women credited as whistleblowers: Sherron Watkins from Enron and Cynthia Cooper of WorldCom. She also received the Sam Adams Award for 2002.[citation needed]
We had taps of Iraqi communications between military units about moving material in advance of inspector visits. How does Rowley, who hasn't been an agent for 6 years, figure into the Iraq war scheme of things? Her participation was of the so called 20th hijacker captured and how the FBI wouldn't search his computer till after 9/11 occurred? Where was she ever involved in the foreign intel concerning Iraq?
