Powell lied

But now he's trying to blame the FBI. These guys are unbelievable... I guess we should feel relieved, at least he's not trying to blame Clinton. You know somebody will eventually, though.

And who could forget this about Powell's con job?

Yet a dossier presented as containing prime-cuts of fresh intelligence material turns out to be nothing of the sort - but rather an internet cut-and-paste exercise largely lifted from a Californian post-graduate thesis focused on evidence from the invasion of Kuwait 13 years ago. Even worse, while typographical errors were maintained, a sprinkling of unfounded exaggerations were inserted to strengthen the claims made in the thesis.

CIA's fault my ass.
