Iraq and WMD: An Analysis of Bureaucratic Politics and World Events
This eleven page post graduate paper examines scholarly debates concerning Bush Administration policies about Iraqi weapons of mass destruction prior to the launching of Operation Iraqi Freedom. The author notes that in examining the role of bureaucratic politics in major world events, bureaucratic politics had only a marginal influence since President Bush was adamantly determined to remove Saddam Hussein from power regardless of the pretext ultimately offered to the United States Congress, the
American public, the United Nations, and the world community.
