NYT:
- A stark assessment of terrorism trends by American intelligence agencies has found that the American invasion and occupation of Iraq has helped spawn a new generation of Islamic radicalism and that the overall terrorist threat has grown since the Sept. 11 attacks.
The classified National Intelligence Estimate attributes a more direct role to the Iraq war in fueling radicalism than that presented either in recent White House documents or in a report released Wednesday by the House Intelligence Committee, according to several officials in Washington involved in preparing the assessment or who have read the final document.

Given the NYT propensity to lie about all things Bush, I'll withhold judgement on this until someone who has actually read the thing can comment on it.
For the NYT to make such sweeping accusations based on the claims of "unnamed officials" - who also may not have read the thing - is ludicrous.
