George W. Bush, August 2nd 2004: âLet me talk about the intelligence in Iraq. First of all, we all thought weâd find stockpiles of weapons. We may still find weapons. We havenât found them yet. Every person standing up here would say, ‘Gosh, we thought it was going to be different.; As did congress, by the way. Member of both parties. And the United Nations. But what we do know is that Saddam Hussein had the capability of making weapons. And … umm ⦠but let me just say this to you. Knowing what I know today, we still would have gone on into Iraq. We still would have gone to make our country more secure. He had the capability of making weapons. He had terrorist ties. The decision I made was the right decision. The world is better off without Saddam Hussein in power.â
