I read the report. You are judgeing after the fact- at the time it was presented, it was thought to be valid- and that was what Bush based his decisions upon. Hindsight is 20/20- but he had to deal with what appeared to be a "clear and present danger", from a source that had USED WMD in the past, and refused to account for the stocks that it was supposed to have given up under the ceasefire terms.
