[QUOTE="bbsam, post: 790991, member: 22662"] I've been chewing on your "why" question trying to come up with an analogy. I think the best is the startup football league (USFL or XFL?). They ended up sueing the NFL over something or other and won--the grand sum of $1. Sometimes winning is losing. I think that's what ended up happening in the WMD scenario. Although there was WMD found, it was old, depleted, and of such dubious quality that one could hardly hold them up as evidence of an ongoing program. Therefore it's easier to claim "faulty intelligence analysis" and move on than to continue to point at the evidence that under careful scrutiny proves the opposite. Better for the USFL/XFL to quietly go away than to continue to herald their $1 victory that makes them look even more a joke. [/QUOTE]
