>Saddam had no WMDs, nor intention to gather them - and we should have known that. We didn't do our due diligence As the saying goes, "It's obvious now in hindsight that NFTs are a scam, but to be fair, it was also obvious at the start, and in the middle too" The US and their allies did do their due diligence. They knew with near-certainty that he didn't have WMDs. All the 'evidence' was purely hypothetical (e.g. he could evade detection by building mobile labs inside semitruck trailers), hearsay from known-bad sources, or outright forged. Saddam was bad, but no worse than the dictators that the US is neutral or friendly towards.
