"The Bush case for going into Iraq was based largely on findings of U.N. and International Atomic Energy "

Revisionist? The UN did not approve of war.

No, but the more reasonable Bush Admin used UN reports along with "reams and reams and reams" of documented evidence of Saddam's evildoing to remove him from power for once and for all.

How on earth did you read the article and come up with this statement? It did not say that the U.N. approved the war. U.N. findings and U.N. approval are two entirely different things.

He said "findings" -- those of SCUM under both Ritter and Blix, as well as those findings presented in a long succession of UN resolutions. That the UN resisted the obvious conclusions of it's own findings is not surprising.
