I am not the one selling it. The UN is and was and passed many resolutions saying so and mostly unanimously. Again, for over a decade, they had been killing in the name of these WMD via Oil for Food, no fly zones, etc. If you can show that is an erroneous statement - let's see it. So, the world thought they were there and must share in some of the blame for W adhering to that line of thought, though I readily agree W took the killing in their name to a much higher level. In the end, if you think there were no WMD (from when exactly I am unsure) - then the world has been wrong for over a decade.
