“So, you made my point. We really didn’t know but went in anyway.”

No. We KNEW they had chemical weapons - which are also WMD. We BELIEVED - truly believed - they were making progress towards nukes.

AND...we had been in a low-grade war for 10 years. Being shot at and bombing them. For years. While they supported terrorism and terrorist attacks.

We had ample reason to go in.

AND IT WORKED! They have acted as a silent ally for us for years now. They have cooperated with Israel against Iran.

Iran is isolated. That wasn’t true in 2002.

Ya, it worked great.
Uh, we “believed” they were making progress?! I used to “believe” in the Easter Bunny but facts dispelled my silly fantasies.
