That's about the gist of it. I am sure Jochen can correct me where I've mistaken. ST It was an "error to attack Iraq before Hans Blix had finished his work", said Clinton..."we did not have any proof that he (Saddam) had nuclear weapons. We also had no proof that he was involved with September 11", said Clinton. The USA only knew that Saddam had chemical and biological supplies, which could have been used for production of WMD"...The former president stressed, he considered it correct to send more troops to Afghanistan...It was wrong, "to redirect the attention from Al-Quaeda and towards Saddam Hussein."...He particularly sees a bigger role for NATO: "I'll be happy to see a stronger NATO operational readiness in Iraq, so that the world does not think this is an American imperialistic affair." Clinton expressed confidence that the German American relations, which has been shaken by the Iraq war and by the torture scandal in the Abu Ghraib prison in Bagdad will normalize itself again.
