The articles didn't actually address what Powell's speech was based on.

The rense article didn't even mention Powell's speech. I couldn't even find Powell's name mentioned in the article.

The Pakistani Daily Times said the CIA opposed the war. Yet the head of the CIA pointedly sat directly behind Powell during his presentation as a show of support.

In regard to the alleged plagiarism (or lack of attribution) in a British report, that report was hardly what Powell's speech was based on. Powell simply mentioned the report favorably. And as for the correctness of the information in the British report, the academic expert on Iraqi intelligence who authored it originally stood by the accuracy of the information.
