actually pretty sure they didn't ... Hans Blik (sp?) final report stated he suspected that Iraq wasn't being honest with their inspectors and that he believed there was an issue.
and Bush agenda?
you toss that out there like he's published a manifesto. He hasn't. You can believe this is all a master plan and an agenda if you want, I certainly can't "prove" there isn't or wasn't one any more than you can prove there was.
As much as anti-Bush people refuse to see it ... could be as simple as reported. Tenet and the CIA reported a pro invasion package that Bush and the house saw and decided to go ahead. It matched the Russian and British intelligence and it was good enough to go in. It was a bi-partisan agreement at the time, something that even Hillary Clinton has refused to back down from.
conspiracy theories and agendas and Neo-Con world ruling plots are great for movies, but may not play out the real world.
