Description
In March 2003, despite unprecedented worldwide protest, President George W. Bush began a preemptive war on Iraq, arguing that Iraqi President Saddam Hussein posed an immediate threat to the security of the United States because he had weapons of mass destruction and ties to al-Qaeda. These claims have come under intense scrutiny with the Bush administration's failure thus far to find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and the recently released information that the administration lacked solid grounds for war in the first place. For instance, this past summer the Bush administration declassified portions of the recent National Intelligence Estimate, unwittingly revealing intelligence that significantly weakened the case he had made for war. The possibility that an unprovoked Hussein would launch an attack was deemed unlikely and the report also cast doubt on Bush's assertions that Hussein had ties to al-Qaeda and was seeking to begin a nuclear weapons program.
