If your boss gives you a directive to do something, then he gets arrested for sexual assault, does that mean you generally take orders from pedo's? That's a horrible argument to start off with.

No, but if my boss says "Go kill that guy, he's a pedo" and I go do it then you can say I knew someone who believed the guy I killed was a pedo.
Even if later he says "What, me? I never said he was a pedo, oh no."

As someone else pointed out, some percentage or other of Americans believed Saddam was connected with 9/11.
The odds are er reasonable you might have known one of these people.

Of course they did. That's why there were enormous protests across the world with big banners saying just that, right before the invasion.

You're just in denial.
i dont know anyone who thought that....ever.  you are in denial (or just a media sheep)
Your country is then covered by a thick cloud of misinformation. Either that or you're in denial. Or both tbh.

Some of you need to remember what "hindsight" means.....seriously.

I remember it like this. When 9-11 happened, myself and everyone I knew blamed one group, who later told the world that they did it and every since our government has been rounding them up except for the leaders. I never heard from anyone who thought or believed that Saddam was behind or involved with 9-11.

Please remember why we fought Saddam.....he invaded Kuwait!!!!!!! and then threatened other countries. The US liberated Kuwait during the first gulf war with the help of 34 other nations and the UN blessing. No fly zones were set up and sanctions were put in place. Saddam refused to follow the sanctions and escalated the situation over and over by refusing UN inspectors, so forth....which heightened everyone's concerns(North Korea anyone?)...eventually the second gulf war happened with less support.

Now, I could care less about what ties he or she thought about. I knew two things....terrorists committed 9-11 and Saddam invaded another country and refused to cooperate with anyone. They were two separate issues that some people TRIED to tie together but again, no one I knew thought that way, maybe others did.

No one can say they "knew" what we are finding out now, not even the UN was sure, but for some of you to sit here and say "I told you so" is a joke. We will probably never really know the whole story and some of us are smart enough not to believe every word we hear in the press or our government (especially now). But seriously get off your high horses, your "I told you so" non-sense...none of you knew jack shit.

You are missing my point and no, I didn't forget why Iraq was invaded. My point is that none of you knew back then what you know now and that no one I knew thought the two were combined. By the way, there were many things I left out, for the sake of the post length...my point still stands.

That may be so but many of us predicted what we now know ... both before, during and after the invasion ...

So you guessed everything perfectly.....do you have the next set of lottery numbers

Like I said...no one knew anything for sure and Saddam never helped his own case by cooperating at all. Let's not forget that Saddam invaded Kuwait, tried to escalate the war into something much larger by attacking Israel and even tried to attack part of Saudi Arabia (Battle of Khafji)

Please remember what the OP stated and what others jumped on Marine about. That we "stupid Americanos" somehow later thought Saddam was to blame. Again, no one I know thought or ever thought that. Even when the second gulf war started. I dont remember Bush going on TV and claiming that Saddam was behind 9-11 and that is why the US was going to attack. Others may have later but I dont recall that as a reason announced to the public.

Yes, some other idiotic politicians tried to tie the two...even many democrats and don't forget the campaign rhetoric that Gore and the democratic party was spewing that Bush was too soft on Saddam and spewing the same rhetoric about Saddam and WMD. Remember that?? Let's also not forget the dozens of international intelligence agencies who thought the same.  The international community was just as much to blame as Bush or anyone else.

Probably this is why no one is doing much about North Korea. They don't want to make the same mistake again.
