Can I think of anybody?

I can think of two types of possibilities:

one, a party who wanted to hype the war and who was good enough to steal or recreate the right letterhead but not knowledgable enough to avoid making an incredible blunder, or ...

two, a party who wanted to embarrass the pro-war faction by baiting them into accepting an easily discredible forgery.

Who would be skillful enough to swipe or create the appropriate letterhead but "clumsy" enough to use an official's name who'd been out of office for 14 years?
