No WMD in Iraq?
“Bush lied and people died,” goes the liberal mantra. Since the Iraq Survey Group found no WMD, Iraq never had any WMD. Really!?!
Final reports of ISG heads David Kay and Charles Duelfer state, “ISG is unable to complete its investigation and is unable to rule out the possibility that WMD was evacuated to Syria before the war…There was evidence of a discussion of possible WMD collaboration initiated by a Syrian security officer, and ISG received information about movement of material out of Iraq, including the possibility that WMD was involved… In the judgment of the working group, these reports were sufficiently credible to merit further investigation."
Furthermore DOD officials cite worldwide intelligence reports pointing to WMD movement into Syria. CENTCOM cites Russian Special Forces and intelligence troops worked with Saddam's intelligence service moving weapons and material to Syria, Lebanon and possibly Iran. Numerous other sources report the same general theme, with different details without contradiction. Finally, the New York Post and New York Times reported on testimony of former Iraqi scientists indicating some banned weapons went to Syria.
Until these allegations can be disproved, I wouldn’t hang my hat on, Bush lied because we found no WMD in Iraq.
Yep, couple this with Stephen Hayes' report on the terror ties that are being uncovered, and also with the former head of Romanian secret police who said he KNOWS that Saddam and the Ruskies had a plan to hide the weapons, and the wheels of the liberal-scums "Bush-lied" mantra are started to come off.
Now, we'll all hold our breath for the NY Times to cover this story, right?
This will indeed be confirmed one day.
I am not holding my breath until the NYT, Wash Post, the networks, and all their small-time copiers report this. You could hand them actual, real-time video of these WMDs and they wouldn't report it.
So, a country in which we enforced a no-fly zone for, what, a dozen years, kept electronic surveillance on, pointed our satellites at, was able to move WMD from point A to point B without our knowledge. And we have not got a clue? Ouch.
If we have this information so readily available for so long, why hasn't the CIA been looking into this. If true, such weapons would pose a vital threat to the entire region. It is time to put some excruciatingly heavy pressure on Assad and the Syrian regime -- You cough up the weapons and we let you live.
Plus, satellite photos showed convoys of trucks heading for Syria--what was in those? And let's not forget that Iraq is a very big place: already they've found fleets of airplanes buried in the sand. What else is buried that we haven't found yet? More bodies, I'm sure, but there could be more WMD.
Remember Bill Gertz's reports in the Washington Times that in the run-up to the war, Russian trucks were picked up by our satellite intel at Iraqi weapons plants carrying some large loads (covered) to Syria? We all thought that the loads were WMDs. This would tehnd to confirm that this is exactly what happened.
Perhaps we should encourage our friends the Israelis to launch an attack on Syria while we bomb Iran. I bet that would shorten the war in Iraq and Afghanistan dramatically, save lives (on both sides), and find the WMDs.
At which point, liberals woudl simply increase teh list of people who are obviously lying.
In LibWorlkd, facts don't matter: truth is whatever serves the party and a lie is whatever doesn't.
Simple -- except when arthritis flares up.
I bet this will be all over the MSM...

I don't knwo who this guy is, but why is he not in custody? I saw him on Hannity and Not-Combs last night.

Ping.
This guy does not know how to sell a book.
If instead he wrote about how there were no WMD and ole Saddam was just toying with President Bush making him think there were, now that would get him to #1 on the NYSlimes Best Seller List in a freaking NY minute!
Look for this one to be hidden on the back shelf of your local bookstore.
