In a recent poll, 50% of the American people STILL believe Saddam had WMDs when the U.S. invaded Iraq. This is UP from 36% from the last poll. Who are these cretin idiots? Don't they READ...besides The American Spector? Don't they watch TV...besides FOX NEWS? Incredible!!

The Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical known as NBC weapons..
when the intent is to create large numbers of casualties for the purpose of destroying populations they are commonly called wmd.
All major nations have great stockpiles and operations to use these weapons iin military combat. The INTENT to use various munitions against NON-military targets..
that is to say, the public declarations and the government operations of that purpose..
and the actual USE of munitions for that purpose have actually been
resreved for only a few.
Hussein's Baathist regime and the dynastic cult he was ruling in Iraq
was not only a regime clearly on the wrong side of INTENT, they were very encouraging to anti-american groups ( both before and after bin Laden )
..
Supra-National revolutionary radicals that DID proclaim desire for WMD, and were active in hurting US interests.

So Hussein's regime was NOT a reformed and penitent after Desert Storm, and DID continue with NBC munitions capability...
There were 500 tons of yellowcake uranium removed from Iraq
( NYTimes article in 2004) and they removed 18+ tons of highly enriched weapons grade from Al Tuwatha the Iraqi nuke plant.
There were weapons.. and there was opportunity to hide before the US invaded. But in 1936.. there wasn't an outcry concerning wmd,
but the danger, and the deaths were real.


and there WERE Americans who said FDR-Churchill were as dangerous as Hitler-Mussolini..
Father Coughlin.
a real patriot.

It does seem many Americans consider WMD to be a nuclear bomb and nothing else. If the expectant result is mass casualties, then WMD could take many different forms.

These "people" really believe Condi Rice's mushroom cloud. Never, but never, OVERESTIMATE the intelligence of the American electorate.

I guess I'm one those idiots.

He knew how to politics, he did for years. If he sent them to Syria, it would be a big win for Islamic extremists. America, the big bully, bombed us for no reason and they'll bomb you to. He knew he was gonna get it so he got rid of them. There was a report at the beginning of the war about this. We had video footage of truck columns leaving Iraq for Syria. Your falling into his plan, imagine that.

Again the screwy guy chimes in who is on neither side of the poll. Hard to tell if he did or did not at any one time (as the old commerical says..'only his hairdresser knows for sure'). I do believe a game a of word semantics was used right in front of us to go to war when it was the wrong place and time.

When was a good time to stop real threats to our national interests?
1973?
1977?
1979?
1981?
1982?
1992?
1993?
1994?
1996?
1998?
Which act of war is enough to rouse the pacifists among us?
Which of the enemies declarations will get your attention?

you have any sources for this fairytale rant?

We had video footage of truck columns leaving Iraq for Syria??? Full of Saddam's dreaded arsenal of WMD I imagine?? Holy cow!! That's really bad!! Wait.....If this is even a remote possibility, why are we (the US) giving Syria a free pass? I mean, they clearly have had links to terrorist organizations (including Hezbollah) in the past, even more so than Iraq. Yet, no demands or threats from the US.

Roman, does that make any sense to you??
