NIE - heads are spinning 360 degrees, calling increasing terror a success

Negroponte Highlights U.S. Successes
Intelligence View That War Is Increasing Terror Is 'Fraction of Judgments,' He Says

The conclusion of U.S. intelligence analysts that the Iraq war has increased the threat from terrorism is only "a fraction of judgments" in a newly disclosed National Intelligence Estimate, Director of National Intelligence John D. Negroponte said yesterday.

johnny-boy, YOU are the director of national intelligence... it even says so, right there in black and white, in that organ of truth and intrepid reporting, the washington post... those 16 intelligence agencies that agree the iraq war is INCREASING terror are ostensibly under YOU... what can we conclude from your quote and that very well-spun wapo headline but that INCREASING terror qualifies as a SUCCESS...?
