What happened to the "Mastermind" of the September 11 terrorist attacks? Why did Bush & Co. focus the nation's attention on Iraq and Saddam instead?
"The most important thing is for us to find Osama bin Laden. It is our number one priority and we will not rest until we find him."
- G.W. Bush, 9/13/01
"I don't know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don't care. It's not that important. It's not our priority. "I am truly not that concerned about him."
- G.W. Bush, 3/13/02
To justify the war, Bush informed Congress on March 19, 2003 that acting against Iraq was consistent with “continuing to take the necessary actions against international terrorists and terrorist organizations, including those nations, organizations, or persons who planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001.”
"No, we've had no evidence that Saddam Hussein was involved with September the 11th,"- G.W. Bush, 9/17/03
