| Summary/Abstract |
The full picture of Iraq's weapons of mass destruction (WMD) programs became clear after 2003. The Iraq Survey Group (ISG) had extraordinary access to people, documents, and sites. The findings revealed much about Iraq's decision making regarding WMD as well as the success of UN inspection activities. Pre-war errors in process and judgments concerning Iraq's WMD must be considered in the context of the times. This is especially true regarding pre-war intelligence assessments that were based on bad analysis, insufficiently caveated, and grossly wrong.
