Bill Clinton himself as President:

President Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998.


And then Bush used a CIA report to invade Iraq that was also DEAD WRONG.
CNN.com - Report slams CIA for Iraq intelligence failures - Jul 9, 2004

And here's Senator Hillary Clinton:
"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members. It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons."
Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002


These were all CIA fuck-ups and false info.

And of course in 2015 it was revealed that intelligence reports on the war with ISIS had been altered to make it look better than it is:

Weird how the CIA is one of the most ruthless and overtly political agency's in the Federal Govt. and how nobody can trust them...until NOW.

Suddenly, the CIA director answering to his boss Pres. Obama alleges that Russia "meddled" with the election but won't show any proof.

But everyone is accepting it as gospel.

Just like everyone believed them and we went to war with Iraq.

Trust me...if Obama uses the CIA to start a war with Russia, it won't be as easy as conquering Iraq.

This is war-mongering at it's worst.
Once again Robbie pulling info out of his ass, lying and making shit up to fit his narrative. The US intel agencies did not say that. That was a British report..

The reason Bush was able to sell the war and get others on board is because he and his admin, cherry picked the fuck out of the intel reports to claim Saddam had WMD then used that to sell the war to congress and our allies. Tony Blair also did the same thing on his side of the pond..

The reason so many members of congress went along with the war and voted in favor is because they believed what Bush & co was telling them. This wasn't a case of failed intelligence starting a war. It was a case of an administration nit picking intelligence to push a war.

Yes there was a war monger but it wasn't the CIA or Clinton.. However in Robbie's world it's always the liberal's fault.. Anyone but his team..
