The people in the Administration are not that outrageously stupid.

They probably didn't expect much of the intel they where provided with to be fake in the first place. Cheney was the guy in charge of analysing raw CIA reports. What's for sure is that this administration is lying.

The US forces are well equipped to fight and survive in a WMD scenario...and in addition WMD's...other than Nukes...are not easily deployed as an effective military weapon...bottom line their military effectivness is highly overated.

So just how exactly was Saddam an imminent threat to the US then?
But civilians aren't well equipped. Kuwaitis, Israelis, Iraqis and Iranians could've suffered high casualties.
