> If not, you're guessing, just like most of us.

I am not "guessing", rather I am reasoning. A reasoning that is not too hard to do by many. For example I say that if you hear some news from Saddam's enemies who are hopeful to rule Iraq, then you should scrutinize its validity due to the obvious motivations. Furthermore, when CIA questions people who fail polygraph tests, then their info should be a suspect. And when you see a plagerized student paper passed around as top intelligence report, then you should really wonder about the quality of the organization that passed it on to you. And etc etc.

In any event, people see what they want to see and as Russell said, unless provided with overwhelming evidence to the contrary, they will. And there is no doubt that many in this admin did want to invade Iraq and so saw reasons for it.
