And, by the way, 500 tons of Uranium ( some enriched) was discovered and removed from Iraq after the invasion.

None of it was weapons grade material.

That's true. But it was a banned substance of value to a WMD program. The enriched portion was highly radioactive.

My point was...the object of Iraq invasion hasn't changed, but the American Public has....it always was about his threat to the western world if he was allowed to stay in power. Don't worry, America will keep you safe regardless if you think it was a bad decision.

The point (IMO) was, Clinton attacked Iraq based on information he believed to be true. Or was it a lie and he misled the american public?

And just in case you missed the point again.

"Earlier today I ordered America's armed forces to strike military and security targets in Iraq. They are joined by British forces," Clinton said.
"Their mission is to attack Iraq's nuclear, chemical and biological weapons programs and its military capacity to threaten its neighbors," said Clinton.

What part of the above is a lie and why?

Was it a lie then or is it just a lie now?

Why would they have 500 tons of Uranium?

How did they get it in the first place?

Either way, it's not relevant to the $200 Billion quagmire we're in today.

So the solution is really simple.

Send a message to the Syrian PM "Hand over the WMD's that Saddam gave you or else. Respond in a week."

No response or a nasty response, take out his Secretary of State.

P.S. Guess who's next."

I think they should just release few barrels of anthrax to the US and tell you got what you asked for

Dear god NUKE, you make it sound like the Iraqis where hiding this stuff. UNMOVIC was fully aware of the uranium at the Tawaitha facility and had inventoried it.

IAEA knew it was there before the last round of inspections. What's your point anyway? That the inspections where working before the invasion? In fact, the uranium became unsecure after the invasion. Not that much can be done with un-enriched uranium anyway.
