On War & Peace: Iraq war was a mistake based on faulty intelligence

Bloomberg said he had no regrets over supporting the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq. "I don't live in a regret world, and I didn't make the decision," the former New York mayor told The Times. "America wanted to go to war, but it turns out it was based on faulty intelligence, and it was a mistake," Bloomberg said. "But I think the people that made the mistake did it honestly, and it's a shame, because it's left us entangled, and it's left the Middle East in chaos through today."
