I STILL think they had 'em.

They're out there somewhere.

If you find pieces of WMD and they aren't assembled, does that mean he didn't have WMD?

[mnehring]

We didn't find actual Zyclon D in many of the concentration camps in Germany, but we knew they used it through the evidence, such as the bodies, empty canisters, and witnesses. What is the difference between that and the WMDs in Iraq?

"Who thought Iraq had WMD? Most everybody"

LOL - well hells bells, even Saddam Hussein thought he had WMDs.

The original sealed indictment had added that al Qaeda had “reached an understanding with the government of Iraq that al Qaeda would not work against that government and that on particular projects, specifically including weapons development, al Qaeda would work cooperatively with the Government of Iraq.”109This passage led Clarke, who for years had read intelligence reports on Iraqi-Sudanese cooperation on chemical weapons, to speculate to Berger that a large Iraqi presence at chemical facilities in Khartoum was “probably a direct result of the Iraq–Al Qida agreement.” Clarke added that VX precursor traces found near al Shifa were the “exact formula used by Iraq.”110This language about al Qaeda’s “understanding” with Iraq had been dropped, however, when a superseding indictment was filed in November 1998.111

The 1984 concept that telling a lie often enough and loud enough will make people believe it's the truth. The Democrats and the MSM know this and thus outright lie to the public. It works!

I think a lot is buried, and a lot more are now in Syrian hands. Many of their military have admitted moving them across the border.

Even Saddam thought he had WMD's.

OH NO.....according to our liberal senators and reps Iraq is their friend, they walk on water you see.....why Bush just said this to start a war to finish what his father had going....

My goodness people don't you believe the liberals?

[MizSterious]

All you have to do is read the translations of the Saddam papers to know they had 'em. There's a whole lot more evidence, including some of the things we found when we entered Iraq at the beginning of the war. Only a dufus could truthfully think there were no WMD. That's trouble--the left is comprised of dufuses and liars.

I STILL think they had 'em.

I don't know how it's possible to do some of the mass killing that they did under Saddam w/o 'em.

One of my favorite quotes is from Clinton's Defense Secretary,William Cohen,in April of 2003:

"I am absolutely convinced that there are weapons...I saw evidence back in 1998 when we would see the inspectors being barred from gaining entry into a warehouse for three hours with trucks rolling up and then moving those trucks out."

Better that they be lost forever than found by and used by the bad guys. Politics be damned, there are lives at stake. Perhaps this is what the President meant when he mentioned using political capital.

Stay safe and come home well.

PING

[Darkwolf377]

He DIDN'T have WMD, and that photo of Rumsfeld shaking hands with Saddam PROVES we GAVE him the WMD he didn't have! Yeah, and you know HOW he got those WMD--which he DIDN'T have, Hullo?!?? He got those WMD (which he didn't have) because the USA GAVE them to him! But he doesn't have them and only a rightwing wacko believes Saddam had WMD--and WE gave them to him!!! Yeah!

Free Mumia! USA out of North America!

Weren't there satellite photos taken during the weeks leading up to the war showing an enormous number of trucks crossing the Iraq/Syria border?

Or Iran.

And we haven't counted Russia out, either. I wouldn't put it past them.

There are some still in Iraq. Why this hasn't come out, I don't know. They're here and people who count know about it.

[theDentist]

Yes.... coincidental, I'm sure.
