In 2003, US experts doubted key Iraq war claim

A CIA cable disclosed on Thursday showed that US counterterrorism officials in 2003 discounted reports that a leader of the September 11 attacks met an Iraqi intelligence official in Prague just before the attacks, further undermining a Bush administration argument for the invasion of Iraq.

 

Senator Carl Levin released a newly declassified section of a March 11, 2003 cable that undercut administration statements that Mohammed Atta and Iraqi agent Ahmad al-Anian had met in the Czech capital in April 2001.
