Remember Bush had the world on his side when it came to forcing Saddam to comply with UN resolutions and disarm. He got a new UN Resolution, a resolution from congress and had the backing of virtually every nation in the world. And Saddam backed down. He let the inspectors in giving them the freest access they'd ever had. Bush should've quit while he was ahead. But he was determined to invade no matter what. That's when he lost the support of the UN and most of the rest of the world. Bush failed to get a second UN resolution for a reason. The first UN resolution, the resolution by congress, they were not mistakes. They helped force Saddam to allow the inspectors in. Invading anyway was the mistake. And that lays solely at the feet of Bush. He made that mistake all by himself. SD
