The Washington Post is reporting that it has obtained another pre-war memo that raises new questions about President Bush’s push toward war in Iraq. The eight page British memo from July 2002 shows that Tony Blair’s government had concluded that the U.S. military was not preparing adequately for post-war Iraq and that there would be a “protracted and costly” post-war occupation of the country.
