The letter, drafted after Mr Crean's call for ALP members to show respect to Mr Bush, says the war was conducted on the basis of a "clear and present danger" in Iraq that did not exist.

Is this a twist on the "not an imminent threat" talking point?

Pres. Bush's comments on this need to be repeated:

"Some have said we must not act until the threat is imminent. Since when have terrorists and tyrants announced their intentions, politely putting us on notice before they strike? If this threat is permitted to fully and suddenly emerge, all actions, all words, and all recriminations would come too late."

Who was it that said Saddam Hussein could attack us with chemical or biological weapons with only 45 minutes notice?
