I am looking at facts or shall we say the situation on the ground at the time Bush ordered the US military to walk in to Iraq. We k now for a fact that there were UN inspectors on the ground in Iraq and their reports were that they did not find any WMDs and that they were still in the process of conducting their inspections. But the Bush Administration did not care about those very inspectors. They had their own agenda and schedule "it seems". (my opinion and not a fact) So here you have the UN inspectors saying that they did not find any WMD. subsequently, we h ad the US military saying that they did not find any WMDs either after they entered Iraq. Oh Oh. Cheney and his henchmen in the CIA saw this as a problem. They were caught in spinning a lie and everyone believed them. So they started spinning another lie with no proof. And that lie is that "these were moved to Syria." Did they not that before going into Iraq? It is that crook Cheney and his neocon gang that lied. I don't fault and will never fault folks who believed them. I am proud that in matters of foreign policy issues, the entire Congress at that time stood behind the US and projected a sense of unity to the world unlike these days where we have a faction of our Congress folks opposing Obama's stand on Crimea. This goes to show that these days there are some Americans who are "really fucked up" such as the Ted Cruz gang etc.
