Saddam HAD WMD. How is that up for review?
Again, it baffles me how you can completely ignore what I posted on that subject. To take it one step further, part of UN resolution 1441 was that Iraq provide documentation of the destruction of the KNOWN WMD that the inspectors were unable to destroy. Iraq failed to do so.

Maybe most educated Americans were aware of there being no connection between El Quida and Sadam but fox news and others didn't seem to. It became common folklore. Nobody at the UN or the Canadian or French governments bought into this premise, nor did they buy into Sadam having WMD. For this Canada and France have been vilified in the American press, internet and even on comedy shows. We were right, the Americans were wrong or at least their stated reasons were wrong. If Iraq had of been a true threat to the Excited States, do you think Canada would not have been there? I'm not going to go back and repeat what the UN investigators didn't find or what your own intelligence found out about Sadam's reported interest in Nuclear development. They found no connection by the way. I understand what the Americans went through with 9/11 must have been traumatic, but Bush used it to start a war under false circumstances.
