While that's true, Bush didn't lie about Iraq having WMDs. Even Hans Blix could not unequivocally say Iraq had destroyed all their WMDs, as evidenced by his quotes from 2003.

I'm surprised you were brainwashed to believe otherwise so easily.
You are free to believe what you wish. In this case you believe a lie, but then again, who cares?

Bin Laden, Atef Indicted in U.S. Federal Court for African Bombings

New York -- Usama bin Laden and Muhammad Atef were indicted November 4 in Manhattan federal court for the August 7 bombings of the US embassies in Nairobi, Kenya, and Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and for conspiring to kill Americans outside the United States.

Bin Laden's "al Qaeda" organization functioned both on its own and through other terrorist organizations, including the Al Jihad group based in Egypt, the Islamic Group also known as el Gamaa Islamia led at one time by Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman, and a number of other jihad groups in countries such as Sudan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and Somalia.

Bin Laden, the US Attorney charged, engaged in business transactions on behalf of Al Qaeda, including purchasing warehouses for storage of explosives, transporting weapons, and establishing a series of companies in Sudan to provide income to al Qaeda and as a cover for the procurement of explosives, weapons, and chemicals, and for the travel of operatives.

According to the indictment, bin Laden and al Qaeda forged alliances with the National Islamic Front in Sudan and with representatives of the Government of Iran and its associated terrorist group Hezballah with the goal of working together against their common enemies in the West, particularly the United States.

"In addition, al Qaeda reached an understanding with the Government of Iraq that al Qaeda would not work against that government and that on particular projects, specifically including weapons development, al Qaeda would work cooperatively with the Government of Iraq," the indictment said.

Beginning in 1992, bin Laden allegedly issued through his "fatwah" committees a series of escalating "fatwahs" against the United States, certain military personnel, and, eventually in February 1998, a "fatwah" stating that Muslims should kill Americans -- including civilians -- anywhere in the world they can be found.

Why would Hans Blix lie about there being no evidence Iraq destroyed their WMDs?

Again, you are free to believe what you want. Why don't you find one of the dozens of threads about that topic, and let people discuss "CIA Torture Report to be released" on this one?

Terrorists don't have any rules.. they plan to kill the innocent.. they don't declare war . They sneak up and kill with no warning. There primary reason is to terrorize by killing, beheading is their trademark.

So why is there uproar on how we got the information from these terrorists? Like I said.. they have no rules of war.. so why is this socialist leaning white house administration bringing up this to make it look as if we are the bad guys on the war on terror? It looks like the terrorists are being coddled yet they can behead Americans , so why can't we waterboard them for information to stop them killing the innocent Americans? The Why?

Obama is not a true American.. He hates America!!

I believe what Hans Blix said several times in 2003: there was no evidence that Iraq destroyed its WMDs, as was required.

Some of them did, I know. I posted Clapper stating that, and I posted that Iraq moved them after Dem Sen. Rockefeller took it upon himself to go to Iraq's ally Syria, and tip them off:

There are too many under-informed people posting emotion-driven instead of fact-based opinions in this thread.
