Do not let the media rewrite history for you. I realize when people get busy, memories fade, and the constant drumbeat of media lies can get into one's brain.
Remember the phrase "I will not wait while dangers gather"?
"we don't know exactly, and that's the problem."
He went on to state that "If the Iraqi regime is able to produce, buy, or steal an amount of highly enriched uranium a little larger than a single softball, it could have a nuclear weapon in less than a year."
However, with regard to chemical and biological weapons, I believe that the determination had already been made that Saddam was stockpiling those. When I used the term "weapons of mass destruction", I was using it to include both nuclear and biological/chemical weaponry. It was the failure to locate the supposed chemical and/or biological weapons which provoked strong debate.
The nuclear question was indeed up in the air.
If anything, that further strengthens my belief that this was a misadventure.
