In the search for WMD in Iraq, President “Bush decided the administration needed a special weapons hunter, and on June 10 [2003], David Kay, a former chief U.N. weapons inspector with extensive experience in Iraq, was sworn in as an adviser to [CIA Director George] Tenet and as head of the CIA’s Iraq Survey Group. The group’s task was to focus solely on the search for Saddam’s weapons, a job that previously had been assigned to the same forces trying to stabilize the country.”
