Fox News: Intelligence Assessment Suggests Now Is Not Time to Change Mission in Iraq
ABC: Intelligence Report Finds Iraqi Political Leaders 'Unable to Govern Effectively'
Fox does seem to have what other media outlets either missed or ignored: "Shifting the U.S. military mission in Iraq to only combat support and terror-fighting will wipe out most of the achievements made in the last three years, warns the latest National Intelligence Estimate released Thursday. That dire prediction, buried deep within the unclassified version of the report, states: "We assess that changing the mission of coalition forces from a primarily counterinsurgency and stabilization role to a primary combat support role for Iraqi forces and counterterrorist operations to prevent AQI (Al-Qaeda in Iraq) from establishing a safe haven would erode security gains achieved thus far," the report states."
