| Article: | Bereuter: War unjustified LINCOLN (AP) — Republican Rep. Doug Bereuter has broken himself away from his party in the final days of his Congressional career, saying he believes the U.S. military assault on Iraq was unjustified.
"I've reached the conclusion, retrospectively, now that the inadequate intelligence and faulty conclusions are being revealed, that all things being considered, it was a mistake to launch that military action," Bereuter wrote in a letter to his constituents.
