Hi.
The White House has already admitted they were wrong and there was no WMDs.
Do you know exactly how hard it is to get that White House to admit they screwed up? Why, look at exactly how horrible the situation had to get in Iraq (answer: extremely) before they would admit something was wrong (and then start blaming other people for it).
Saddam did not pose a threat to the US. Saddam was not affiliated with Al-Qaeda. Virtually everybody who knew a damn thing about the matter knew that. That's why 90% of the world said so when Bush started going on about it. Bush said they were wrong. Some people chose to believe him. That's understandable! You want to believe your President, especially in the wake of a national tragedy. Nobody blames you for believing him then.
He was wrong (actually, he was flat-out lying). You were wrong. The people who said otherwise were right. I realise this is difficult to admit, but it's true nonetheless.
Trying to defend a bogus justification for invasion long past when even the White House has admitted it was smoke and mirrors is... maybe noble or something, but mostly kind of sad.
