We were wrong about Iraq: US security advisor

"Washington, November 14: The US was ‘wrong’ about presence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, a top White House aide has admitted while maintaining that President George W Bush did not manipulate intelligence and mislead the American people to justify the invasion of Baghdad.

"Turns out we were wrong," said Stephen Hadley, Bush's National Security Advisor.

"But I think the point that needs to be emphasised...Allegations now that the President somehow manipulated intelligence, somehow misled the American people, are flat wrong," Hadley said yesterday at a television talk show."
