Did Bush manipulate Iraq data?

[Moldran]

And my point stands. "Sense" is not a substitute for "evidence". You can't convict a criminal in a court of law on the basis that their having done it makes sense.

True. But I did not try to "convict" anyone. I was only trying to answer the question "did Saddam have WMDs or not".
Wether the US had "the right" to do this war is, IMO, not dependent on the WMD question. By international law, they quite clearly did not have the right, even if Iraq had have WMD. Morally, their intentions are questionable, but the outcome is good. A war was justified simply because of the suffering of the Iraqis under Saddam. That Bush might have "lied" over his motives does not matter a bit to me. Politicians lie all the time. I don´t care about the moral integrity of your president :P
