"THe media were rich with implications, innuendos and even bald statements that Iraq was a holder of and potential user of weapons of mass destruction." - Amos

Ah so it was the MEDIA who stated that Iraq had WMD - How does that translate to this being a "Bush Lie" as Bobert wants it to be broadcast as. If fact if either of you ever bothered to read what the mandate of UNMOVIC was you would both know that UNMOVIC did not go into IRAQ to FIND WMD - They were tasked with going into Iraq to determine and verify what the status was with regard to WMD, WMD Programmes, WMD Weapons, WMD Delivery systems and Precursor Materials.

"The administration made multiple statements on multiple occasions directly implying linksbetween al Qwda's (??) attack on the US and Iraq." - Amos

That is a blatant lie Amos. Within five days of the attacks that took place on the 11th September, 2001 two senior members of the Bush administration stated clearly and unequivocally in broadcast statements and in interviews that Iraq and Saddam Hussein had absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with those attacks.
