I'll read what you've posted. But what you don't read is that analysts and CIA-types that questioned the data supporting the existance of WMDs, saying this is all supposition, "we have no hard information that proves Saddam has WMDs," were sacked or saw their careers derailed. The White House wanted to go to war with Iraq, it was predisposed to go to war with Iraq. Rumsfeld and Cheney were not interested in considering analysis suggesting there no WMDs. The two men shielded the president from this information. It was "slam dunk" all the way. This is what I decided by reading many sources and reading a few books on the war. But I'll give the links you sent me a look see and we can talk more then.
