Iraqi WMD? There's no proof... not just yet.

But the search is only two weeks old yet, right? Time will tell.

Iraq's a big place. Can you imagine burying almost a whole squadron of airplanes? Burying them? Given that mindset, it's going to take some serious time to look for them. Perhaps some of the Iraqi regime that have surrendered will speed up the task.

no, I meant justice has been done and well served in Iraq.

why don't you tell us what it is exactly that upsets you so much regarding Iraq?

1. Iraq disarmed and Saddam removed
2. Iraqi people freed as a secondary benifit

Looks good to me.

It could be the reason of the war... or the reason stated anyway... To remove the weapons of mass destruction...

Actually, the reason was non compliance with several UN resolutions.

OK, Maniac, you've confused me.

Are you saying you wanted Iraq to have WMD?

Oh that narrows it down. Iraq never complied with UN resolutions.

Iraq's actions caused  this war and they could have prevented it from happening a long time ago.


Problem solved, sorry that upsets you. It's part history now and maybe your kids will read about it and learn that resolutions alone won't solve  problems.

We have gone over this before.
Some US,  SA and EU companies did supply Dual Use equipment and chemicals that were not banned under any  UN resolution. They MAY or may not have been used as pre-cursors to chemical weapons.

The democraticly controled (at the time) congress investigated this back in 1993 (led by John Conyers btw) and found no evidence to support the claim that the US supplied any chemical weapons to Iraq.

Number of Companies that have supplied Iraq with dual use equipment and materials-

United States of America -  24
Britain - 17
France - 8
Germany - 11
USSR / Russia - 6
China - 3
Japan- 4
Netherlands - 3
South Africa -2
Spain - 3
Sweden 2

Ah, OK. So Maniac WANTED Saddam to have WMD.

How do you feel about Kim Jong Il having a few nukes? That sound good to you too?
