“On May 1, 2002, Washington Post reporter Walter Pincus followed up on the [April 28, 2002] Newsweek story [of a meeting in Prague, Czech Republic, between lead 9/11 hijacker Mohamed Atta and an Iraqi intelligence officer] by citing a senior [Bush] administration official. Pincus wrote that ‘there is no evidence’ of the Prague meeting, something his source determined ‘eliminates a once-suggested link between the terrorist attack and the government of President Saddam Hussein.’ ”
