Bush Says Iraq Action Justified Even Without WMD Discovery
President Bush said despite the fact that the Iraq Survey Group has issued a report concluding that Iraq did not have weapons of mass destruction, the United States and its coalition allies were justified in taking military action to remove Saddam Hussein from power.
