Wrong. Bush was planning it from the get go. It would have taken something more significant than 9/11 to stop the Iraq invasion.
I am not denying it that GW Bush wanted to overthrow Saddam Husseins regime through a military invasion. However the 9/11 made the proposition of undertaking this endeavor much easier than it did in if 9/11 had not occurred. Because he allegation of a link between Saddam Hussein and Abu Musab al-Zarqawi (who was a al-Qaeda member) helped quite a lot in getting the whole project of overthrowing Saddam Hussein's regime through a military invasion become a reality. If 9/11 had not occurred the United States would have very likely restored to other methods to overthrow Saddam Husseins's regime.
