According to a new Harris Poll, Americans now are more inclined than they were in the past two years to believe that Saddam Hussein possessed weapons of mass destruction. However, Harris questions this changing attitude since, as it points out, news media have “widely reported” that no WMD have been found. Perhaps the pollsters failed to consider that the June 21 revelation by Sen. Rick Santorum (R-Pa.) and Rep. Peter Hoekstra (R-Mich.) that newly declassified material “proves” that WMD exist in Iraq has filtered out to the American populace.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth this week released strategies meant to focus the Pentagon’s “alphabet soup” of innovation organizations and proliferate artificial intelligence—moves that experts say could provide the structure needed to make the military’s efforts to integrate and field new technology more effective.
