The reason that best explains the U.S. decision to go to war with Iraq is:
• Some U.S. officials were concerned about Iraq's possession of WMD (Weapons of Mass Destruction).
This concern was a central justification for the invasion in 2003, although the existence of such weapons was later discredited.
