Kissinger Did Not Break With Bush Over Iraq

What Kissinger actually said, three days earlier in the Washington Post, was that:

"The imminence of proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, the huge dangers it involves, the rejection of a viable inspection system, the demonstrated hostility of Saddam combine to produce an imperative for pre-emptive action." Kissinger's opposition to pre-emptive war with Iraq was an invention in the New York Times.

The Times, in a belated editorial note, acknowledged that Kissinger had ben misidentified as an opponent of pre-emptive war.
