    Just as the Bush administration believed it was necessary to strike first against potential threats (like weapons of mass destruction)

    Weapons didn’t exist so your logic falls on its face. Bush didn’t have a potential threat therefore your “strategy” wasn’t applied.

      No, the message definitely means that the weapons were never there but I’ll edit for clarification, thanks!
