Richard Spertzel, Explained
Two days ago I mentioned Richard Spertzel, a former UNSCOM inspector and one of the people the CIA sent to Iraq post-invasion, and said he'd brazenly lied in a Wall Street Journal article from 2004. I also promised to provide more details about it if anyone was interested.
It turns out several people indeed were interested enough to email and request more information. I think it's pretty well explained in this old post about Frank Gaffney—as you'll see, Gaffney made all the same claims on the radio that Spertzel did in his op-ed. (In fact, I'm pretty sure Gaffney got it from Spertzel. He's too stupid to make this kind of stuff up on his own.) But let me know if anything's unclear.
