Part 1 of your question: I don't know, but I would hope that we do with all our might and money

How could we possibly have evidence that "which supports the foregone conclusion that Saddam is out to attack the US."? Does our might and money allow us to read minds?

Part 2 of your question: You can't go around the world attacking other countries without evidence.

You can indeed attack countries where you don't have incontrovertible evidence that they are eventually going to attack you. You can attack them if they attack someone else. One that conflict starts a cease fire agreement puts in on hold until its violated. Any attack on Iraq now would be a response to its attack on Kuwait, delayed by the ceasefire agreement, but started because that agreement was violated.
