Basically, I would rather the govt work on the intelligence that they have and be wrong, rather then not act because the intelligence has some doubters or is not 100.0% (as no intelligence ever is) and have the situation turn far worse.
The government must acquire accurate intelligence. Period.
There was conflicting intelligence on Iraq. Our government preffered selectively choosing information that seemed to make their case for the Iraq war that they already wanted. This has happened before, and gives good grounds for questioning US leadership when it comes to attacking another country.
You have said something recklessly irresponsible about going to war with the intelligence that you have, even if this intelligence is wrong. Don't really know how to respond to that. Don't see how anybody can think that's reasonable. It does give insight into your standards for an invasion of another country. Your bar is set very low for something so profoundly important.
