New York Times finds Bush negatives where positives exist

Buried well within the New York Times story—and I use the word “story” advisedly because they constantly weave quite a tale from the information they read—is the following:

But Mr. Duelfer argued that Mr. Hussein was also exploiting avenues opened by the sanctions, including the oil-for-food program, to lay the groundwork for a long-term plan to resume weapons production if sanctions were lifted.

Mr. Hussein “wanted to end sanctions while preserving the capability to reconstitute his weapons of mass destruction when sanctions were lifted,” the report said.

But their headline is “U.S. Report Finds Iraq Was Minimal Weapons Threat in ‘03”. 

Naturally, they decry the assumption—held the world over—that Iraq and Hussein was a threat.  Because that’s what they do, if at all possible, and even when it’s not.

They also mention that, oh by the way, “The report was based in part on the interrogation of Mr. Hussein in his prison cell outside of Baghdad.”
