Kerry would never have even made the mistake in the first place of trying to invade Iraq which is what p*ssed of all the allies, inlcuding us.

If I'm not mistaken, he voted in favour of action in Iraq.

Yeah, but lets not forget that President Bush presented a bunch of evidence that was filled with inaccuracies (lies). I'm sure there are lots of people on both sides of the fence that would like to re-cast their vote, since the weapons of mass distraction smoke screen turned out to be just that, a big smoke screen.

A contribution to this topic from the New York Times today:

A senior leader of Al Qaeda who was captured in Pakistan several months after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks was the main source for intelligence, since discredited, that Iraq had provided training in chemical and biological weapons to members of the organization, according to American intelligence officials.

Intelligence officials say the detainee, Ibn al-Shaykh al-Libi, a member of Osama bin Laden's inner circle, recanted the claims sometime last year, but not before they had become the basis of statements by President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, Secretary of State Colin L. Powell and others about links between Iraq and Al Qaeda that involved poisons, gases and other illicit weapons.
