Condoleezza Rice admits Iraq regrets,

FORMER top US diplomat Condoleezza Rice has voiced regret at the bloody aftermath of the 2003 invasion of Iraq but says the Bush administration had in the end "got it right" in the country.

Ms Rice, who served as national security adviser during the Iraq invasion and later as secretary of state, was unrepentant about the ouster of Saddam Hussein.

"I would many times over liberate Iraq again from Saddam Hussein. I think he's a danger to the Middle East," she said today in a speech at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, when asked what she thought she had got wrong.

1. What about the part where they lied about WMDs?
Of course she doesn't regret that. It was deliberate. Couldn't tell the truth to the unwashed masses. They might have otherwise thought the invasion was a bad idea.

3. The Bush Administration
got NOTHING right about Iraq. NOTHING right about anything. Why aren't they in prison? Condaleezza included.
