The Bush team had begun to develop policy on a proposed US approach to the rest of the world back in the mid 1990s. The group called Project for the New American Century (PNAC) outlined and published a new strategic approach to foreign policy in 1997.

Members included Cheney, Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz. They were looking at using American military power to shape the world to meet American interests. Big changes in the Middle East were part of that plan.

The war on Iraq came as no surprise to those who were following PNAC developments or to those who understood that 9/11, WMD and Al Qaida were just a convenient pretext to justify the war to the American public. Clearly the UN and most of the rest of the world did not believe any of it (including Canada, France and Germany).
