"...President Bush defended his foreign policy over the past eight years in an address to the Saban Center for Middle East Policy in Washington, DC. At one point, he acknowledged that there was no link between Saddam Hussein and the 9/11 attacks but justified using such a connection to push for the Iraq war:
It is true, as I have said many times, that Saddam Hussein was not connected to the 9/11 attacks. But the decision to remove Saddam from power cannot be viewed in isolation from 9/11. In a world where terrorists armed with box cutters had just killed nearly 3,000 people, America had to decide whether we could tolerate a sworn enemy that acted belligerently, that supported terror, and that intelligence agencies around the world believed had weapons of mass destruction. It was clear to me, to members of both political parties, and to many leaders around the world that after 9/11, this was a risk we could not afford to take."
1) Saddam Hussein had NO links to the 9/11 attacks and U.S. "intelligence" knew that.
2) Saddam Hussein and Iraq had NO weapons of mass destruction and even U.S. "intelligence" knew that.
3) Saddam Hussein was an acknowldged enemy and opponent of Al-Qaeda, refusing their presence in Iraq, and U.S. "intelligence" knew that.
4) With a decimated army, Iraq, no matter what Saddam Hussein thought or felt, was in NO position to attack the U.S. of part of A., and the U.S. Armed Forces and U.S. "intelligence" knew that.
So, murderous moron, what the fuck was and is the Iraq War you lied Us into about?
