On the first, CDS said that we did not know yet if the US battleplan was workable. The military were continuing to ask lots of questions.
For instance, what were the consequences, if Saddam used WMD on day one, or if Baghdad did not collapse and urban warfighting began? You said that Saddam could also use his WMD on Kuwait. Or on Israel, added the Defence Secretary. source
So, the question is... if Bush & Co. were simply manufacturing the Saddam threat why are they worried about fictitious WMDs in the same breath? I think logic will prevail here.
