Heck, many in the USA thought that Saddam had instigated 9/11 attacks when it was only about the oil
Interesting that you should use this as an example bearing in mind this recent research, which showed that, for people who believed that Iraq had WMD, providing them with corrective information showing that that was not the case had the effect of strengthening the original belief. Which probably goes a long way to explaining why those on each side of the BA dispute don't tend to get very far when debating on this forum!
