More to the point would be if someone attacks us, we take the time to find out who did it with a good degree of certainty and then bomb the shit out of them. End of campain.

If believable evidence shows anyone helped them, bomb them too.

By keeping things simple we maintain our credibility. Credibility is too valuable an asset to waste.

Nope. You could find a Dick Cheney quote in which he speculates that on Meet The Press once, but that's about it given the months-long runup to the war, they simply didn't say very much at all about any connection, never mind "conflated".
