Nice to hear you concede that your "inescapable conclusion" might be escapable. Wish I'd known about this phenomenon of the escapable inescapable conclusion back when I was searching for new ways to tease my sister during Easter Egg hunts.
No, I suspect you've misconstrued my meaning. As I clearly stated, the prewar WMD thesis which I've accurately described is
strictly defunct. It is incorrect, false, wrong, illusory, unreal, whatever term you prefer. There is no conceivable possibility in my view that it could prove remotely accurate.
The view which may be incorrect is that the foremost explanation for that innacurate intelligence appears to have been misleading information from the Iraqi opposition groups.
