In the case of Iraq, they lied on purpose to support the invasion. In the case of Iran, Trump just ignored the intelligence.
I do think the intelligence community is capable. For example, they warned of the Russian invasion weeks before it happened when all other European countries said it wouldn’t.

Other countries like UK, Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania were on board that the invasion was going to happen.
