This should help you to better see the issue of why we invaded.



All of these reasons existed at the time but the Administration couldn't speak to some of them, so they mentioned the reasons they could. (You'll note that the segment marked "Prevent Larger War" includes the perception that Saddam had real WMD's and that is why we had to disarm him.) And, being unaccustomed to blatantly withholding the truth from the public they did it in a less smooth manner than the liberal public is accustomed to being schmoozed.

Some of the reasons STILL can't be acknowledged now. But in time they will be.
