“According to one former senior Pentagon official [per The Washington Post on March 13, 2004] who worked closely with [Undersecretary of Defense for Policy Douglas] Feith’s offices [Office of Special Plans], their goal was not just ‘how to fight Saddam Hussein but also how to fight the NSC [National Security Council], the State Department, and the intelligence community,’ which were not convinced of Hussein’s involvement in terrorism.”
