they were shipped off to Syria, Libya and Russia while the U.N. and the U.S. Congress dickered over a resolutions supporting military action if Saddam did not officially account for them and turn them over

Saddam fully expected, with the help of the American Left, to make Iraq another “Vietnam”, return to power and get his WMD materials back from his friends.

I suspect some of what the U.S. got from Gaddafi began its WMD life in Iraq as is the case with Syria as well, and some I suspect Russia still has.

[Kickass Conservative]

If President Bush KNEW there were no WMD’s in Iraq, we would have found them the first day of the War.

My standard line to a Liberal who blurts out the old Bush Lied, People Died meme.

"The left keeps on saying there were no WMD’s in Iraq..so I have a simple question for leftists..where did Assad get those same weapons that he has been using on his own people..did they come out of his butt?"

Why does it seem now like Iraq was the only middle east country that didn't have WMDs?

[Durus]

Then there are the hundreds of tons of yellow cake uranium they found.

Not to mention the military assets they had hidden like fighter jets.

Not to mention the munitions they used to make roadside bombs to kill Our people for years.

There were 30,000 Kurds who might have had an opinion supporting hers.

[FreeAtlanta]

These no wmd folks are bat squeeze crazy.

Only a lemming would honestly believe Saddam either didn’t have wmds or was really trying to get everyone to believe he had them via violating all the UN resolutions against him.

What is to be gained by their continual denial that there was chemical and biological weapons in Iraq and they were trying to get nuclear weapons?

I guess they can neuter future attempts to control those weapons.

[SgtHooper]

Hypocrisy by the left is the new normal for them.

At 76 years of age, I’ve been watching ‘rats for a long, long time - trust me, it’s their old normal.....

[Din Maker]

DAMN! When did FR Moderators start allowing Articles from that Liberal, Left-wing “MOTHER JONES” yellow journalism rag? Holy Shit Batman!!!

I watched the video. Joni handled it perfectly. Anyone who has half a brain knows that Saddam Hussein DID have weapons of mass destruction. Good thing nobody has a paid subscription to “MOTHER JONES” except fags, lesbians, child molesters and Registered Sex Offenders.

[entropy12]

Chemical Ali had already used chemical weapons for mass killings of opposing factions in Iraq.

So it is never a question of if, it is is only a question of what happened to them.

[Sam Gamgee]

The left hasn’t had a narrative so dominated since it’s Pinochet and Allende.
