You did not but thousands have lost a parent becasue they got it wrong.
They would of got better intel if they had read this board and as much as you pontificate that's the truth.
Look at your family and try to imagine what you would feel, how you would react and how you would get even. If someone had killed them on this flimsy, WRONG evidence.

"Blase" is your word and it is inappropriately used when applied to me. I am...and have been enraged...when intel gets it wrong in a major way...and even in a minor way...as I have been on the receiving end of bad intel. PF almost lost his military career because of bad intel in Vietnam. I have said from the beginning that a "lying" President is of little import compared to an intel failure.
In my case though I never viewed WMD's as being the most important reason to take down Saddam and the Baath party as I advocated it within the first year of the "cease fire" Iraq agreed to.
