Lack of Intellectual Honesty

Mr. Pipes:

At no time did the Bush administration state that a reason for the war against Iraq was because of a broken contract. The message was not always clear, but one thing is clear: The major reason for going to war was the WMD.

More time may be needed to find the weapons. To date, however, no WMD have been found. There may be many other good reasons for the war, but we need to be intellectually honest.
