I definitely did not believe Iraq had WMDs.

That's interesting. Now i'm genuinely curious what broke your resistance.

I’m not sure I understand your question. Do you mean “what made me realise that Iraq had no WMDs”? Well, for starters that the UN had been all over the bloody country inspecting it for years. Secondly that Colin Powell’s session at the UN presented drawings as evidence. Drawings.
