Evidence was fabricated in the run up to the Iraqi war. The UN, British and American peoples were all lied to. Its well documented.FEOS wrote:

Its just as likely the US agenda is to attack Iran and Iran's nuclear program is an excuse to attack, same as Iraq's supposed WMD were a ruse to justify an invasion.
I'm guessing the agenda is to grab the oil and wipe out any threats to Israel, the evidence comes later.
Cheney flatly declared: "Simply stated, there is no doubt that Saddam Hussein now has weapons of mass destruction. There is no doubt he is amassing them to use against our friends, against our allies, and against us."
Central Intelligence Agency Director George Tenet later wrote that Cheney's statement "went well beyond what our own analysis could support."
Bush: "The Iraqi regime possesses biological and chemical weapons, is rebuilding the facilities to make more and, according to the British government, could launch a biological or chemical attack in as little as 45 minutes after the order is given. . . . This regime is seeking a nuclear bomb, and with fissile material could build one within a year."
Wonder if the, attack on the UK claim, had anything to do with the UK's biggest expert on Iraqi weapons, who went against Blair and Bush's claims turning up dead in a field?
Bush, to Polish TV: "We found the weapons of mass destruction. We found biological laboratories."
Rumsfeld had a one-word answer for reporters who asked whether Iraq had relationships with Al Qaeda terrorists: "Sure." In fact, an assessment issued that same month by the Defense Intelligence Agency (and confirmed weeks later by CIA Director Tenet) found an absence of "compelling evidence demonstrating direct cooperation between the government of Iraq and Al Qaeda."
Richard Clarke, President Bush's chief counterterrorism adviser, has written that President Bush asked him on September 12 to "see if Saddam did this. See if he is linked in any way. . ." Clarke said that he responded by saying, "Absolutely, we will look . . . again," and then adding, "But you know, we have looked several times for state sponsorship of al Qaeda and not found any real linkages to Iraq."
What you have above is a few examples of the reckless unsubstantiated "facts" the administration was throwing about in the run up to Iraqi invasion. These are coming from men with agendas who seam to ignore the experts they employ to advise them. There were no WMD, there was no chemical attack ready to hit UK in 45min's there are no proven links between Saddam and Al Queda (Saddam was Infidel to them)
Yet when the same bullshit the same reckless statements are being flung around with regards to Iran, its all 100% true in your mind and anyone who questions the administration is a crazy conspiracy theorists.
