No, at the time of the invasion it had NOT been determined to be BS. And it still hasn't. The killing of US diplomat Lawrence Foley in October 2002 by assassins who confessed to having received directions and wired funds from AQ associate Zarqawi in Iraq is evidence to the contrary of your claim. The assasination of Foley happened in Jordan. Zarqawi was Jordanian. Are you suggesting we invade Jordan now? That Jordan is linked to al Qaida?

The killing of US diplomat Lawrence Foley in October 2002 by assassins who confessed to having received directions and wired funds from AQ associate Zarqawi in Iraq is evidence to the contrary of your claim. Zarqawi has set up a terrorist camp in the Kurdish part of Iraq. He was not affiliated with Saddam Hussein even if he did go to Baghdad which is still unclear. He did not hook up with bin Laden until after the US invaded Iraq: "Abu Musab al-Zarqawi was the most prominent leader of the insurgency against the United States' occupation of Iraq until he was killed by U.S. forces in June 2006. Born in poor circumstances in Jordan and jailed there for petty crimes in the 1980s, he became a militant Islamist and fought against the Soviet Union in Afghanistan. He later was accused of plotting attacks on tourist sites in Jordan and finally resurfaced in Iraq as the head of a group called "Tawhid and Jihad." The group was known for attacks on Shiites and beheadings of foreign hostages, which it documented and released on videotape. In 2004 he aligned the group with Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda, an international terrorist organization. He died in an air raid north of Baquba, Iraq." answers.com
