Seems to me that the guys in Iraq responsible for makeing the WMD stuff fooled everyone in attempt to save their own lives and family.
I mean , they not only fooled Saddam, but they fooled the whole world
of course, I might be wrong

How the heck should I know. I'm not CIA or anything close.

You said they fabricated evidence, so you must have more information than I do. What evidence did they fabricate?

You work at the Pentagon? If not, how would you know?

Ooooh, I get it, it's speculation. You made it up. Much like your time in the service.

I know what was done during the iran-iraq war. You stated that wmd were used against the kurds after GW1. I asked you to document this use.

Ahhh, the standard "you got me there, so I'm ignoring you" post.

I guess it works when you realize you're wrong, but refuse to admit it.

HA! I love knowing that GScholz is really reading this, but pretending not to. How pathetic.

He can't NOT read it. Just like Miko, he doesn't have it in him.

HA! Much like his war stories, I doubt anyone is buying this either.

Unfortunately, I must sleep. Much like my Lab, I'm sure he can be coaxed to chase more sticks tomorrow. Dumb animals just can't help it.

We didn't invade because of WMDs, terrorism, or to make money for Halliburton. The main reason was to get our troops out of Saudi Arabia.

I guess that depends on what you mean by ready use. If I bury weapons in the desert it may take you 10 years to find them if you don't know where they are. Whereas it may take me only an hour to drive out to them, dig a few feet, open up the hatch, and start loading the trucks if I do know where they are.

Sorry to bust your bubble Virage. Google is one of the most biased and manipulative source of information you can access. They decide what you find and what not! They filter out unwanted sites and present you the fitting ones on top. Google is anything but indpendent! Sure it's a good tool for your every day inquiries but not the place to look for raw, unfiddeled, uncensored information.

Partisan rhetoric aside, there is a point to be taken from this:
The perception of a current and future threat from Iraqi WMD did not originate with the current administration. Agree or disagree with using said threat as a justification for war all you want, agree or disagree with the contention that the threat was imminent, but accept the fact that the threat has been considered credible for many years. And considered so by policy makers and advisors from both sides of the aisle.

we first knew he had wmd during the reagan administration when they sold them to him. pretty much all he had. the rest is the retoric.

simple and to the point.

Support of the use of chemical weapons, of course, cannot be defended. And Hussein was a dangerous psychopath from the word go. But the zeitgeist of 1984 and 2003 are entirely different. While I think it is valid to criticize the Reagan Administration's policy of supporting Iraq as a counterweight to Iran, I don't think it is fair to accuse any of the principals of inconsistency or hypocrisy. The geopolitical situation 20 years ago was just too different to make such comparisons valid.
