By then Blix and Baredai had reported that there were likely no WMD and the Iraqis were DESTROYING their most powerful missiles to avoid war. That is when Bush chose to invade.

This not Oct, when Congress voted - is when the question should be asked. The media did not really take up the calls for peace that came from many people at that point. Part of it is political - because it is an out for people like John Kerry who in both op-ed and a speech at Georgetown in early March 2003 (before the war) demanded that Bush give the inspecters more time.
