I cannot believe you need to even ask the question. Bush took off after Iraq because: 1. Security agencies of many countries (including ours) thought he had WMD. 2. Sadam had declared himself an enemy of the USA, and had sent assassins to get Bush 41. 3. Iraq was harboring terrorists. 5. There was fairly good intelligence that Iraq had funded terorists. 6. Iraq was the Middle Eastern equivalent of the Third Reich, and were torturing and killing people in mass quantities. All of this was discussed at the UN in the run-up to the war.

I like and respect you Miss Marple but you embarrass yourself with this persistent denial. Not even the administration continues to defend this drivel.

[Miss Marple]

Really? Show me where they refuted these points, which were the President's main points when he spoke before the UN.

Sarcastic and condescending comments do not make your point. Show me an example of where the administration disavowed any of these points.

Actually the administration does agree on all these points as well as the 100s of thousands murdered. In addition the Country reelected him knowing all of these facts.

I'm not embarrassed for/by Miss Marple. She is correct about the lead up to the Iraq war. Facts is facts.
