Bush Asserts Iraq 'Had a Weapons Program'

Note, he is changing the terms of the debate. It used to be 25,000 liters of anthrax. Now it's that he had a "weapons program".

"The credibility of this country is based upon our strong desire to make the world more peaceful, and the world is now more peaceful after our decision," Bush said.

Remember this. I'm in the process of reading Chalmers Johnson's book Blowback. It's one of those books you wish you had read when it came out in 2000, because it talks about the effects of U.S. imperialism in the third world, and mentions Osama bin Laden by name as a figure we hadn't heard the last of. His basic premise is that our imperial posture across the world, as the "sole remaining superpower" will cause unintended consequences in the form of increased violence. I'll talk more about this later.
