People were consistently being misled on Iraq in order to find an excuse to invade. They settled on WMD's, despite learning that their intel was wrong, because it would be the most agreable pretense for invading.

“For bureaucratic reasons we settled on one issue, weapons of mass destruction, because it was the one reason everyone could agree on,” then-Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz told Vanity Fair in 2003.

And they kept pushing the allegation of links between Iraq and al-Qaeda, long after it was discredited by FBI, CIA and the foreign government that first made the allegation.
