The Euros and "the rest of the world" - two entities I personally could give a sh/t about - seem to care a helluva lot more than the American electorate about whether we find the WMD we and everyone else know Saddam had. Last poll I saw, over half of all Americans believe we did the right thing by enforcing the provisions of the '91 ceasefire in Iraq, whether or not we find the damned things.
I would have made Iraq green glass on 9/12/01, just to show we could.
Nevertheless, that's not on Cathryn's point.
GWB has a lot at stake here, and I hope he's proven right.
