Actually your video shows that Bush thinks that "resentment and a lack of hope" from those in the middle east, not Iraq..

This video also clearly shows Bush saying that Iraq did not cause 9/11 and the reason for the invasion was due to concerns over WMDs along with human suffering, and to "advance the freedom adjenda"

You heard what you wanted to hear, what the media wants you to hear, not what he said.

Why didn't Bush deal with those who caused 9/11 rather than direct our resources elsewhere?

Because SOME of them were IN Iraq..

I'm sure the administration was thinking,
Hey, we can take care of the terrorist camps, the WMD's and Saddam who was terrorising his own people, all in one fast sweep.. No one thought it would drag on..

SOME of who was in Iraq? And who said "SOME of them" were IN Iraq and that is why we should go to war there?

Was there a hearing I missed that declared the Bush Administration did not torture?

This report is over 500 pages. Since you are so knowledgeable, give me the quotes out of this report that back up the terrorist camps in Iraq theory.
