I don't believe that hussein ever admited to having a nuclear weapon? nor do I believe we ever claimed he did.
As for trusting our government. Well thats a tough one. First of all there is no Mr. Government, we are talking about a whole bunch of individuals that interact and make policy.
Individuals can lie, or mislead to get their way? Can't they?
Governments deal in propaganda. They really don't want to present a fair and unbiased report. They want to shape the report to get the desired reaction froim the people.
In effect, the goverment is a bunch of advertisers that want to get their selling point across.
Don't advertisers frequently gloss over some of the less beneficial aspects of their proucts?
Always listen for what the people are actually saying and what they mean . . .

That is why we have to trust our government. They know and have so much more information about these two countries. If they feel that it is more necessary to go after Iraq than North Korea, then that is what we have to do.
