There is plenty of evidence to support your central premise that the White House overstated the imminent threat of Iraq's wmds. I just think Blix is probably the least reliable.

If you misheard Blix and he was saying that earlier he had no doubt that WMD would be found, then there's no problem. I don't know what he said, but it's hard to figure out what he meant unless you've got a quote.
