Bill Clinton to make regime change in Iraq an official policy of United States government. Clinton agreed.
When the Bush defense team - anchored by Rumsfeld Cheney and Bolton - assumed power in early 2001 they had one goal: remove Hussein and use Iraq to build a larger presence in the Gulf region.
Bush's chief terrorism adviser, Richard Clarke, was fired because he asked the Bush administration to focus more on Al Qaeda than regime change in Iraq. Clarke, who was first hired by Reagan, says that he was rebuffed every time he tried to talk about Bin Laden or Al Qaeda.
The man was fired because he wanted the Bush administration to focus more on terrorism than a pre-planned policy to use Iraq as part of a larger goal to build a larger military presence in the Gulf Region.
