“On February 10, 2005, [counselor to the State Department Philip] Zelikow issued a 15-page report classified SECRET/NODIS–secret, no distribution–meaning that copies should go to no one other than [Secretary of State Condoleezza] Rice herself. It concluded, ‘Iraq remains a failed state shadowed by constant violence.’ ”
