"I do wonder how much of the intelligence supporting the idea that Saddam posed a major threat came from parties with vested interests in promoting that view, notably Israel and Iraqi exiles."

I also think Israel would have done a better job -- Iraqi exiles seem to have been very successful at providing self-serving "intelligence" -- good point to suspect them. If they outsourced the job, perhaps that would explain the bungling as well.
