Thank you for posting that. It has always amazed me how easily everyone accepted the “no WMDs” propaganda without questioning it at all.

*********************

The reason it was dismissed, is because the Bush administration was selling mushroom clouds and nukes, when the government of Iraq had biological & chemical weapons that are WW1 technologies.

If that’s your case for going to war with a country, you’ll have your country in a permanent war with many nations around the globe.

As for the reasons to go to war against Iraq/Saddam, I think there were a few more than you suggest.

Reasons we might have gone to war with Iraq.

• 1. Iraqi provocation of American planes patrolling the no-fly zone. "More than 42,000 sorties were flown during that time. Iraqi surface-to-air missiles and other anti-aircraft systems targeted ONW aircrews on nearly every flight." (That sounds like 42,000 reasons to me but I'll only count it as one.)
• 2. Saddam defied 17 UN resolutions that were a result of his losing the war. (again, that should count as 17 reasons.)
• 3. Saddam tried to assassinate a former U.S. President.
• 4. Saddam was killing the Marsh Arabs in southern Iraq that we had promised protection.
• 5. Iraq's nuclear weapons program.
• 6. Iraq's biological weapons program.
• 7. Iraq's chemical weapons program.
• 8. Saddam's extensive cooperation with terrorists.

This probably doesn't count but... the 250,000 to 290,000 people Saddam had killed
