There were no WMD's there. The CIA told them that too, but they twisted enough arms until they found someone who said they were there.
Most of us believe the war was being fought because they wanted to transform the middle east. Not because of oil, not because of WMD, but because these guys thought they could put a democracy in an arab country an everything would change. They were wrong, but some good things came out of the war, but the costs were too high for what we got out of it.
