BBC: Bush 'ordered leak', ex-aide says
President Bush authorised the leak of secret intelligence to the New York Times to help defend the war in Iraq, a former top White House aide has said.

The claim comes from Lewis Libby, the former chief-of-staff to Vice-President Dick Cheney.

Mr Libby is facing trial for allegedly obstructing an investigation into a different leak.

He is accused of lying to prosecutors investigating who revealed the name of CIA agent Valerie Plame to the press.
