No WMD.
No Iraqi oil for the Iraqis.
No al-Qaeda link to Saddam.
What did we go to war for?
How dare Blair go for the Presidency of the EU! Imagine that bloodthirsty bastard in charge of an EU army!

No link between Saddam and Al-Qaeda: Pentagon study
Thu Mar 13, 6:04 PM ET
WASHINGTON (AFP) - A detailed Pentagon study confirms there was no direct link between late Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein and the Al-Qaeda network, debunking a claim President George W. Bush's administration used to justify invading Iraq.
Coming five years after the start of the war in Iraq, the study of 600,000 official Iraqi documents and thousands of hours of interrogations of former Saddam Hussein colleagues "found no smoking gun (i.e. direct connection) between Saddam's Iraq and Al-Qaeda," said the study, quoted in US media Thursday.
The US administration appeared to bury the release of the study, making it available only at individual request and by mail -- instead of posting it on the Internet or handing it out to reporters.
A Pentagon spokesman on Thursday said they did not know why the Joint Forces Command was not posting the report online, but denied that it was an attempt to limit its distribution.
