 I think it's time to shift our focus on the "here and now" issues, however.

Until the question is answered definitively this debate can go on and on like a hamster in a wheel.


I agree with you, we need to focus on the present.

for your service to our country

The Pentagon, it was learned today, is certain that Iraq has WMD...they kept the receipts.

Well, DUH. If I were an Iraqi with a car and the USA announced they were invading I'd drive to Syria too. To imply this increased vehicular traffic proves Iraq had WMD and moved it to Syria  just prior to the War is laughable.
:rolleyes:


Too say that the vehicles were not carrying WMD's is laughable too.  Ya know you libs sound like a broken record.

Could someone please explain how questioning the WMD issue instantly labels you as a  liberal? That's a rather narrow minded focus imho.

Let, me get this straight, we aren't supposed to believe what SH says, but we are supposed to believe what Al-Quaeda say?


Vor, were those that same Al-Samoud missles that Iraq had started destoying under UNMOVIC observation shortly before the Iraq was invaded?

Loaded question. Short answer: No. These particular ones seemed intact to me. So did the Scuds and Al-Samoud missiles fired into Kuwait during the first few days of the war. At any rate, wouldn't destroying them just prior to invasion have put them about 10+ years behind schedule?

Gixer, basically being labeled a "liberal" is an insult used by those too dense to see the varying shades of grey in what they believe to be a black and white world.

Get used to Bodhi's namecalling- it's all he can offer to a thread.

Interesting info GSholz. Thanks. I assume they were identified from debris?

When I found out the Al-Samoud was banned I *assumed* it had been banned since the beginning. Looks like I'll have to concede this point.

And in all fairness, I never saw one of the things in flight. We just called everything a "scud".

It's funny how liberals don't like to be called liberals... it's like they're ashamed of it.

It's not beyond the realm of possibility that Saddam's tons of unaccounted for WMD have not been found because they are well hidded or had been  moved into Syria.

The fact remains that Iraq never accounted for and Hans Blix never accounted for or found tons of WMD which were known to have existed.

The fact that these WMD have never been accounted for is
usually dismissed by people who say Iraq "had no WMD"  They don't seem to want to learn what became of all those weapons.

This is why I feel the US action in Iraq was justfied. Everyone knew Saddam was not complying with the UN, the UN and everyone else knew Saddam had not accounted for tons of WMD........yet they were letting Saddam dance around and were about ready to declare Iraq in compliance regardless of these facts.

The mear fact that it was possible that Iraq had WMD and was not complying is enough for me. No fooling around and waiting to see after 911 in my opinion. Certainly I wouldn't trust our security to the bumbling Hans Blix as the final word, when even he said Saddam was not cooperating.

So it came down to a war that France and Germany opposed. Big deal.....at least Iraq is in compliance now. Now we need to find out if WMD went to Syria or someplace else.

I do not need to rebuttal. The first post of this thread was so insane there is no arguement. Find a better source.
