I don't think any rational person believed that Hussein had as many weapons of mass destruction as Bush claimed. Neither do I think any rational person believed that Hussein had no such weapons. He most likely did have some, but they have been destroyed or made unusable by now, whether Hussein did it himself or Coalition forced did it.
As Ronn Bman said, no sane person believes everything thier government tells them. Ketchup is a vegetable, remember? [img]graemlins/beigesmilewinkgrin.gif[/img]
This is why I have always stated that Bush should have made the Iraq conflict about removing Hussein and not about weapons of mass destruction. One must always choose a cover story--a lie, if you will--carefully just in case it backfires later. I thought the politicians in Washington were more subtle than that.
Finally, if our actions were illegal, then why doesn't someone step forward to place us "under arrest", so to speak? Azred looks around, but doesn't see anyone stepping forward. That's what I thought. [img]graemlins/petard.gif[/img]
