http://www.legitgov.org/ Wolfowitz story falsified --A woman lied about being tortured during Saddam Hussein's reign and a US newspaper is having to backtrack on a story it wrote about her --Testifying before the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee in July 2003 about the rebuilding of Iraq, Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz told the story of Jumana Michael Hanna, an Iraqi woman who had recently come to the Coalition Provisional Authority in Baghdad with a tale of her horrific torture at the hands of Saddam Hussein's regime. ...But Hanna's story, which had been the subject of a front-page article in the Washington Post, appears to have unraveled. Esquire magazine, in this month's issue, published a lengthy article, by a writer who was hired to help Hanna produce a memoir, saying that her account had all but fallen apart.

http://legitgov.org/index.html#breaking_newsHow much did Wolfowitz and the Defense Department know was false? Did they hire the writer to help this woman get her story out? Just another lie to justify the war to pad the pockets of defense contractors that funneled money into the house that Bush stole.
