Reasons for the Iraq war validated

Two of the biggest reasons for going to war in Iraq were WMDs and Iraq's link to terrorism. Many aruged against the war, saying neither existed. Now that we have proof of both it is time the anti-war movement admit they were wrong and Bush was right.

Tests conclude artillery shell contained sarin. And another one contained mustard gas.

ABC reports on Al-qaeda mastermind, Zarqawi's, training and actions in Iraq.

During the 1990s, Zarqawi trained under bin Laden in Afghanistan. After the fall of the Taliban, he fled to northwestern Iraq and worked with poisons for use in potential attacks, officials say.

During the summer of 2002, he underwent nasal surgery at a Baghdad hospital, officials say. They mistakenly originally thought, however, that Zarqawi had his leg amputated due to an injury.

In late 2002, officials say, Zarqawi began establishing sleeper cells in Baghdad and acquiring weapons from Iraqi intelligence officials.
