I think you'd be hard-pressed to find a single example of any military Google might help that has gone to war based on reasons the appropriate authorities knew to be false.
I anticipate that your response would be to cite the first second Bush Administration's claim of Iraq's possession of weapons of mass destruction. Before making that response, I encourage you to familiarize what that term means under federal law (and has meant since 1994). 18 U.S.C. ยงยง 2332a(c)(2) and 921(a)(4).
In order for someone to believe that the claim of WMDs was a lie, they would have to believe that the Hussein regime did not possess grenades, and that the President knew it.
