“While visiting Iraq [on July 21, 2003], [Deputy Secretary of Defense] Paul Wolfowitz tells reporters, ‘I’m not concerned about weapons of mass destruction,’ adding that that was now the job of American intelligence agencies. ‘I’m not saying that getting to the bottom of this WMD issue isn’t important. It is important. But it’s not of immediate consequence.’ ”
