I've been scanning some of the right-wing articles as of late and I continually find arguments being made that the whole world was convinced that Iraq was storing-up and building WMD's. Funny, but I seem to recall that Canada's rationale for not going to war was that the US did not provide sufficient proof that the WMD's were there. I know for a fact that Canadian politicians, after the big debrief from Powell et. al. at the UN came away saying that the only responsible course of action, given a fundamental lack of intelligence proving otherwise, was to allow the inspectors to continue searching for WMD's before taking military action. The biggest piece of evidence came from British intelligence but, even at the time that the evidence was presented, it was commonly known to be false (apparently even US intelligence argued that their claims were untrue).
