Are you admitting all these people I mentioned, who served in the military, worked in government positions way before President Bush, by the way, fell for his fabricated lie.
Is this an educated guess as to how these Harvard & Yale grads fell for it and followed a President lying to them.
If they couldn't recognize a lie from an American, how the hell do we expect them to not see lying Iran?
WMD is the least of our worries Saddam is dead, and remember Obama got Bin Laden!
IMHO the regime in the Middle East that needs to be toppled is the hereditary Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. From their degrading treatment of women as property to their slavish support of the radical Wahhabis Muslim sect and their continuous call for eradicating both Israel and Iran these people are our most dangerous and pernicious enemy in the Middle East.
We've all seen the bumper stickers: "Bush lied, thousands died." And the cartoons of Bush with a Pinocchio nose w/ "WMD" tattooed along its length. This meme will be regarded by historians as one of the biggest idiocies of history. There is so much evidence against it that only the self-deluded and the willfully ignorant can continue to believe.
Most experts, and even Saddam's own senior officers, believed in early 2003 that Saddam still had WMD. This was by Saddam's design, and mainly intended as a stratagem to keep the Iranians in check. There is this curious recollection from a senior officer about the early days of the American invasion:
(from Cobra II, by NYT reporter Michael Gordon, and Gen Bernard Trainor, p. 190).
Once and for all, the only 'lies about WMD' came from Saddam himself. There was no lie about WMD from Bush, Cheney, Rice, the Bilderbergers, or anyone else. None.
We believed Iraq had WMD's even before Bush was President; for some strange reason, people always forget that we did bomb Iraq back in the late 90's for kicking out our inspectors. Saddam led us to believe he had WMD's, which is why I can't say Bush was lying, but nonetheless, the information he received was inaccurate fortunately and unfortunately. Its like the phrase "it's better to be safe than sorry," we didn't find anything, fortunately, but it cost us many lives, destabilized the region, and cost a hell of a lot of money unfortunately.

That will happen before O is done. You won't like the result.

Explain why you think that will happen? Everyone understands that an attack on Saudi Arabia could have the entire Muslim population mobilize, especially within the ME. Now I can imagine ISIS somehow using Saudi Arabia as a staging ground in the coming future for their radical ideology, then at that point we'll see how Saudi reacts to it.

Silly questions. They went with public opinion, which was carefully crafted by Dubya & Dick's months-long campaign of disinformation. Maybe you aren't old enough to recall the autumn of 2002. I served in the military, have a college degree and I believed him at the time. It wasn't until it was all revealed to be lies a year later that I woke up to the reality.
Many posts in this thread show that there are some folks who still buy Dubya's BS.

O creates regime destabilization via engineered uprisings with the illusion of popular revolts. You'll see the same in SA. After the regime is deposed, they sit back and let radical Islamists take over or duke it out.
The end game, not yet played out will be the creation of a radical Islamist superstate.
Bill made the same claims even before George. Granted I can understand her not believing anything Bill told her.
Bill Clinton didn't wage a ground troop war once in Iraq during his two terms.
