Who's Behind the Fraud?

Bloggers Philip Giraldi and Andrew Sullivan are circulating a story - half vicious, half crazy - that Doug Feith's office fabricated false documents. 

This is not the first time such a wild and facially absurd accusation has been lodged: 

Former CIA man Vincent Cannistaro took to the airwaves in 2005 to accuse Michael Ledeen of fabricating the Niger yellowcake story. 

The accusation quickly collapsed of its own lunacy of course. But there's becoming a pattern here: the flinging of reckless charges of fraud against Jews in and around the administration, without regard to evidence or even surface plausibility.
