Pelosi Statement on Senate Intelligence Report

Washington, D.C. -- House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, a 10-year veteran of the House Intelligence Committee, released the following statement on the Senate Intelligence Committee’s report on prewar intelligence on Iraq:

"Although the Senate Intelligence Committee’s report is properly critical of the intelligence produced on Iraq, it does not tell the whole story.

"Since weapons of mass destruction have not been found in Iraq, it is clear that the intelligence case for military action was not supported by the facts. Because the White House was not a subject of the investigation, many critical questions remain: How were the misperceptions about weapons of mass destruction and Iraq's link to terrorism created? By whom? And why?

"It is one thing to have bad intelligence, it quite another to mischaracterize that intelligence. Congress must investigate whether the intelligence on Iraq was misused or manipulated."
