Others would use a higher standard of evidence including yourself I would guess.

Not a higher standard of evidence, perhaps, but a better rounded rationale. There's more to going to war than just determining that there is substantial evidence of Iraq having WMD or being in cahoots with the terrorists. That's just a first step.

I already said I would use the SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE standard as the proper risk analysis.

How about a tiny bit of evidence?

Since they couldn't find any WMD, that means there could not have been ANY evidence.
