Bush Plans To Delay Updates on Hunt for WMD

HeadlineAug 01, 2003

The Washington Times reports the Bush administration is taking a new approach in dealing with critics of the invasion of Iraq. Pentagon insiders are calling it a “big impact” plan.

According to the Washington Times, the Pentagon plans to stop releasing information piecemeal about the failed hunt for weapons of mass destruction and wait for an extended period of time — maybe six months — to release a broader report.

David Kay, the special adviser to CIA Director George J. Tenet on Iraq’s weapons recently told NBC, “I think in six months from now, we’ll have a considerable amount of evidence, and we’ll be starting to reveal that evidence.”
