"First the point has been well made that many people thought no such thing and said so at the time. "


EXCEPT that NONE of them EVER asked Saddam to bother to comply with the UN resolution, in order to prevent the war.

You know, the LAST CHANCE that the UN declared him to be in NON-COMPLIANCE with.


So, I hold all of those people mentioned in the quote to be at least as guilty as Bush of causing the war- IF NOT MORE SO. After all, Bush can plead ignorance. Just ask Amos.
