SECRETS and LIES...

Fitzgerald's indictments, if he brings them, could do more than convulse Washington -- they could reveal the hidden history of how we went to war.

By Michael Scherer


Here are four of the biggest questions Fitzgerald's investigation may be able to answer:

# Did the vice president's office put pressure on intelligence analysts in the run-up to war?

# Did pressure from the vice president's office have anything to do with the more aggressive views expressed in the 2002 National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) or the accompanying "white paper" about Iraq's weapons threat?


# Who forged the Niger documents that purported to show a sales agreement for Uranium with Iraq?


# What role did the vice president's office and the Pentagon play in gathering and disseminating intelligence from sources outside the normal intelligence process?

2. Keep It Going

It really starts today, but the process may be a long one. But as Chris Mathews just said, "the wheels of justice move slowly but they cut finely".
