It's funny that anti-war types ignore the fact that al Samoud II missiles, which were illegal for Saddam's regime to possess, were found in bulk in Iraq and shown on every TV station in the world.

yes, and fully capable of carrying a useful physics package capable of 20 megatons of atomic blast energy, the ignorance of the world to the capability of Hussiens former regime is terrible, but hey, they can be ignorant and hostile like Micheal Moore...

It's funny that pro-war types overlook the fact the English were told that chemical and biological warfare could be launched from Iraq in 45 minutes. Most of Tony Blairs basis for war was based on this.
Where are they? I'm not denying that Iraq had illegal missiles, but no-one can deny that they didn't have the WMD we were told either.

Did anyone here see the videos of Saddam's soldiers blindfolding and pushing people off of roofs? Saddam WAS a weapon of mass destruction.
Who gives a crap if he didn't happen to have a nuke at the time, he was trying to get one, that is well known.Don't forget the fact that we are still finding weapons caches all the time and anthrax and other bio weapons are very small, easy to hide, easily destroy, and easily made to be ready to be whipped up on short notice while disguised as "research" or legitimate uses. Hmm, I wonder why thousands of Iraqi soldiers all had gas masks when found dead, and why there were stock piles of gas masks and bio-suits found all over the place over there. Maybe Saddam was going to launch an attack right when we struck but the command didn't go through because all the the s"hock and awe", or maybe his orders were ignored. Maiky, tell me why you love a piece of human garbage like Saddam so much and would rather support him than defend the people that risked everything all to oust him?

BMX232 - you're changing the topic. This isn't about Saddam being good or evil, it's about wether or not the public was lied to about the WMD Iraq was thought to have had and that because of this we had to go to war.

Quote:
A vile of anthrax that can fit in your hand can kill thousands, something like that can be hidden or destroyed instantly. " When the Iraq Survey Group (ISG), led by David Kay, issued its interim report in October, acknowledging that it had not found chemical or biological weapons, the inspectors had then visited only ten of the 130 major ammunition depots in Iraq; these ammunition dumps are huge, sometimes five miles by five miles on a side. Two depots alone are roughly the size of Manhattan. It is worth recalling that after Desert Storm, US forces unknowingly destroyed over 1,000 rounds of chemical-filled munitions at a facility called Al Kamissiyah. Baghdad sometimes had special markings for chemical and biological munitions and sometimes did not. In short, much remains to be done in the hunt for Iraq's WMD." "finding physically small but extraordinarily lethal weapons in a country that is larger than the state of California would be a daunting task even under far more hospitable......"-- it's not over yet, so you can't accuse anyone of lying. Also, if intelligence is given to a person, and that person believes and reports that intelligence, that is not a lie. is legal to invent fake documents to wage a war? has the USA government done it? No, and no. -as of now the answers are no. edit- spelling

Very big in the UK with ex soldiers from the 1st Gulf War. A lot of the blame went with the MOD for drugs they were forced to take and equipment they were forced to handle. Little blame went to any chemical or biological weapons that may have been used by the Iraqis. Quote:
But I bet you pounds to peanuts that if no more evidence is found, neither Bush or Blair will say they were wrong and they didn't lie.

I'm sorry to hear that BWX. I really do hope things turn around for him, however I think you may want to read this. http://washingtontimes.com/upi-break...5156-7401r.htm
"An estimated 84 percent of the personnel who had anthrax vaccine shots ... reported having side effects or reactions," says Bingaman's resolution, a copy of which was obtained by United Press International.

Well about 5 minutes ago I responded to the last couple of posts, press "submit reply", and thought it went through. I guess it didn't, I'll have to respond later.

The fact that the country was armed to the teeth. with enough RPG's found in early discoverys to arm every man , woman, and child with a RPGs alone. the most recent weapons caches with weapons found more the 300 tons of ordanence, 0% for the us but intel form all over the world. Spain being one of them named! what do you have to say about that? Why was your counrty arming iraq?

I mean no dis respect the the site you linked 2 is trash. http://www.infowars.com/ http://PRISONPLANET.COM his mission statement? Alex Jones Presents Infowars.com to Fight the New World Order (the united states) hes stsed everything thing form that the US has declred martail law. and i totally ignoreing the constitution .. etc.... tyhis guy shovels more crap then a horse stable. he's another michael moore . "We Want War" when he bases his new stories he uses site that are total trash like http://www.guardian.co.uk/ saysting the us troops run around a shooting at random and killing civvialns, exagorating stories etc... he makes book and movies... really the simuaitrys between this guy an michal moore are scary. "The New World Order elite has big plans for Arnold" "United States Military or New World Order Police Force?" so acording to this guy you'd think bush is HITLER and the US people and the goverment are the nazis and were all trying to take over the world. ![]() he cuts and trusts truths/half truths/lies to how he sees fit. his site is no more that Anti us propaganda Last edited by The_Neon_Cowboy; Dec 3, 2003 at 01:33 PM. |

Or another possablity? on their their way to some where else from iraq? It was also rumored on the battle field. As stated by the genral in charge of our forces. that france helped iraq hide eveidence of WMD before thier arrival.

Does anyone remember any of Bush's speeches leading up to the war? This war was predicated on the "fact" that Saddam had in his posession large quantities of nuclear payload and nasty chemical weapons delivery systems. I don't even care about the fact that we have yet to find anything useful in proving these "facts." What concerns me most is that he has since shifted the reason that we went in to Iraq to something along the lines of, "Well, Saddam was a bad man, and he killed lots of people with firing squads, torture sessions, and starvation." Erm, well, I can think of about a dozen other places in the world where this kind of mass killing idiocy has occurred for the past 20 years and continues to occur to this day. Will we be going into places like Rwanda next? I'm all for helping people, but do we really need to spend the lives of our young men and women to help a group of people that don't want our help? It doesn't make any sense to me. This war was started because of an apparent "imminent" risk to the lives of American citizens, and we have yet to discover actual evidence of that risk. That does not bode well for our international reputation or for my and many other citizens' confidence in our government.

Re: WMD? - CIA Press Release
Quote:
Myth #1: The Estimate favored going to war: Intelligence judgments, including NIEs, are policy neutral. We do not propose policies and the Estimate in no way sought to sway policymakers toward a particular course of action. We described what we judged were Saddam's WMD programs and capabilities and how and when he might use them and left it to policymakers, as we always do, to determine the appropriate course of action. did you read that bit?
