Was the degree of threat posed by Saddam deliberately exaggerated in order to justify the war?

That's your question, but it's an old question. The war has already been fought, and won, and the rest of us are moving on.

The rest of you may be moving on to a point where you are told that if we don't immediately invade Syria, Iran, or North Korea, the world as we know it will come to an end.

Will you believe? Will other people believe?

I'd hate to see us believing when we shouldn't, and I'd hate even more to see us not believing when we should. The credibility of our leaders is a substantial issue to us and to many others, and until this issue is resolved, that credibility is suspect. One way or another, it needs to be resolved.
