More World Leaders Said There Were WMDs In Iraq

Along with Tony Blair and Vladimir Putin, Tommy Franks tells us that two more world leaders thought Saddam had WMDs.

"The biggest surprise for him was that they've found no weapons of mass destruction (WMD), the 'reason we went to war.' He says multiple Middle Eastern leaders, including Jordan's King Abdullah and Egypt's Hosni Mubarak, told Franks that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. In January 2003, Mubarak said point blank to Franks, 'Saddam has WMD-biologicals, actually-and he will use them on your troops.'"
