In his March 21, 2003, letter to the speaker of the House of Representatives 
and president pro tempore of the Senate notifying them of the use of military 
force in Iraq after the failure of diplomacy, Bush stated that "the use of 
armed force against Iraq is consistent with the United States and other 
countries continuing to take the necessary actions against international 
terrorists and terrorist organizations, including those nations, 
organizations, or persons who planned, authorized, committed, or aided the 
terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001." 
On the December 9, 2001, edition of Meet the Press, Cheney said that it was 
"pretty well confirmed" that an Iraqi intelligence officer met with September 11 
hijacker Mohamed Atta shortly before the attacks.
On the September 14, 2003, edition of the NBC program, Cheney said: "If we're 
successful in Iraq ... we will have struck a major blow right at the heart of 
the base, if you will, the geographic base of the terrorists who have had us 
under assault now for many years, but most especially on 9-11."
