So, why is the mainstream media ignoring the Downing Street Minutes? Minutes from a British Prime Minister's meeting in July of 2002 which contained this explosive evidence:

C reported on his recent talks in Washington. There was a perceptible shift in attitude. Military action was now seen as inevitable. Bush wanted to remove Saddam, through military action, justified by the conjunction of terrorism and WMD. But the intelligence and facts were being fixed around the policy. The NSC had no patience with the UN route, and no enthusiasm for publishing material on the Iraqi regime's record. There was little discussion in Washington of the aftermath after military action.

Are they ignoring it because they want corroborating evidence? Well, if it's corroborating evidence the press wants, let's help em out.
