Bill knows the score. After all, he was probably briefed on Iraq and Al Queda daily during his 8 years serving as President. While many may disagree with Bush's methods, some of which may have been misguided due to bad CIA intel, Iraq was a scourge that needed to be dealt with since Desert Storm ended. The UN is/was an absolute joke in regards to it's dealings w/Iraq. Saddam did meet and did harbor members of Al Queda before and after 09/11..... regardless of whether Saddam did or did not have a direct link to the terrorist actions undertaken on 09/11. Even the bi-partisan 09/11 Commission is in agreement on this.
