I'm sure there is a 5 part expose coming from the NY Slimes, so i won't go into a whole big thing on it, but Bush was right about Iraqs WMD. According to audio tapes provided to Nightline by Bill Tierney of the FBI this is what Saddam had to say.
"Terrorism is coming. I told the Americans a long time before Aug. 2 and told the British as well … that in the future there will be terrorism with weapons of mass destruction." Saddam goes on to say such attacks would be difficult to stop. "In the future, what would prevent a booby-trapped car causing a nuclear explosion in Washington or a germ or a chemical one?"
Of course there's more, and you can read it here. Or you can wait for Pravda on the Hudson to do their piece on it, i'm sure it's coming any day now.......

Stop riding his diznick!!!
walike, stop kicking his ass! i don't ride anything, when he's wrong, or i believe he's wrong i say so. I'm quick to criticize on lots of stuff, like the steel tarriffs he instituted that blew up in his face, the fact that he won't veto ANY spending bill ever! his harriet miers pick for SCOTUS, his stance on the southern border, etc. The point of this story is that it's a HUGE DEAL, and we're not hearing ANYTHING about it. my problem is with the media! Newsweek and Time put Cheney on the cover for a hunting accident, but there's no way that's a bigger story than SADDAMS SECRET TAPES ADMITTING THAT HE HAD WMD, 2 YEARS AFTER HE KICKED OUT THE UN WEAPONS INSPECTORS!
Is that the reason we invaded Iraq? Honestly? Do you expect me to believe that we occupy Iraq because of WMD? Who gives a shit if they got WMD? Any country is allowed to defend themselves. North Korea has Nukes and noone is planning any invasions over there.
Iraq was an easy target to generate oil dollars. We have done nothing but kill our own troops via lackl of equipment or friendly fire.
Please don't try to justify this Iraq thing--its obvious to everyone around the world why we chose a SOFT target like Iraq. What was not predicted was that the resolve of those ragheads was gonna turn this into a much longer occupation than anticipated.
At this juncture it doesnt matter who was right or wrong-what matters is that we find a way to get our soldiers home-whom just signed up to get some college tuition relief and now they have to dodge bombs and rockets.
warlike, regardless of how you feel about the war in iraq, or what YOU think about the motivation for the invasion, the STATED reason for going to war was that Iraq had WMD and would use them against the U.S. via terrorists, or use them against their neighbors, like Israel.
When congress approved the use of force that was the stated reason, and when we got there and didn't find as much as we thought, the chant was "BUSH LIED PEOPLE DIED" everyone was saying that he lied about the WMD. It was on the front page of every paper, it lead the nightly news for over a year! Now we know he was right, the weapons were there, and saddam planned to use them. My post is simply to point this out, and to wonder why this story isn't leading the news? Liberal media bias maybe??? You do the math.
Dont be one of those guys WL. You know the 'blood for oil' and 'bush is hitler' guys. Noone likes those guys.
I can't even argue with Rhino about this one...it hurts but I have to agree...Rhino, just so you know, I still think you are a jerk...peace!
fly i don't care if you think i'm a jerk, just so long as you admit that i'm handsome. FACT
Why do you care if I think you are handsome? You weirdo...Okay, I'll admit, you look like a hand some...but only just a little bit.
Bush is not smart enough to be considered Hitler. And yeah the "Blood for oil theory" is more believable than so called helping out our so-called allies Israel. If that's the case why don't we just invade and occupy every muslim country in the middle east. They all hate Israel. They all fund and support terrorism.
I just want someone to give me ONE good reason we are in Iraq other than the pc WMD and "potential threat" answer.
You don't even realize how fucking programmed you sound with the same "manchurian candidate" answers about this fucking pointless war.
Now if Hitler, I mean Bush comes out and says he's going to step on North Korea, then I'm gonna ride with him. Those gooks have WMD, they aint trying to hide WMD, and have stated they will use WMD if provoked.
You know why they will never do it? North Korea is not considered a "SOFT" target like Iraq and their #1 export probably is heroin which we don't need due the copious amounts we cultivate in Afghanistan.
actually ben, we know that 2 years after he kicked the weapons inspectors out he had reinstituted his weapons programs, we know he was enriching uranium, and we heard from a former general that the weapons were shipped to syria.
You may believe him or not, but if he said there never was any weapons, he would have already made all the talk shows, and the NY slimes would have put him on the front page. that was the point of the post.
I'm not allowed to throw insults?
Maybe you need to read the mantra. Thats what we do here and NO ONE is off limits-that includes holocaust victims and Dubai Dubya!!
