The ability to miss the point is strong in some people. This game starts with a simple premise: that Bush/Blair were telling the truth. Saddam had WMD and was willing to use them.
Since that now seems incorrect, of course reality diverged from the game very quickly. Anyhow, you might be amused to read some of the hate mail that I received from the armchair patriot brigade. Some of these people need help ASAP.

play the game.
