However, the aquisition of many of these new allies is extremely suspect. I don't even want to go into it because it is speculation and not fact, therefore I will give you this one and say that yes, we were supported by several allies. (But please, for the love of God, explain to me GW's shady affiliation with Saudi Arabia and how we can possibly disregard it?)

Well, think of it this way... Saudi Arabia controlls OPEC. The USA's economy is highly influenced ont he decisions of OPEC. However, Saudi Arabia does alot of bad things we don't want to support. So it's a tough situation go either way and Bush loses.

Now, this may be extremely ignorant of me, but I seem to remember Sadam saying "We have no WMD's"... over, and over, and over again.
So ... what else could Iraq have done? Made some WMD's, then destroyed them and showed us a picture??

So you believed Saddam when he said he had none? Personally, I wouldn't believe a thing Saddam had to said. Especially when he has motivations to lie.
