White House Promises "Smoking Gun" Intelligence
(Telegraph-UK) Toby Harnden - White House officials have signaled that America and Britain have powerful intelligence evidence to cement the case for war against Iraq. Andy Card, the White House chief of staff, and Karl Rove, President Bush's chief political strategist, have each indicated privately that the administration has proof that Saddam Hussein has weapons of mass destruction. Rove strongly suggested that the Bush administration already possesses a piece of intelligence from the CIA or MI6 that would amount to the "smoking gun" critics are calling for.
