The Bush administration has cast itself in a new role in the Iraq fiasco: innocent victim.
Linda McQuaig in The Toronto Star: "With Iraq expected to be key to President George Bush's re-election chances this fall, the rewriting of history has begun in earnest; events leading up to the war have been given an extensive nip and tuck, leaving them barely recognizable.
Perhaps you recall how eager the Bush administration was to invade Iraq last year?
If so, you're mistaken. Senior administration officials weren't determined to invade Iraq, they were simply the victims of faulty intelligence. There they were, just minding their own business, when incompetent underlings kept hounding them with false information showing Iraq had weapons of mass destruction and close links to Al Qaeda.
What choice did they have but to invade?"
