This can’t be possible because, as any Sean Penn would know, Iraq never had WMDs!
Cant be true, there were never and WMDs in Iraq. Its was a peaceful place where kids flew kites and loved Sadamm. Michael Moore said so..
war is hell.
Frankly I'm shocked I still have to explain all this at such a late date. I thought everyone knew these things by now.
;-)
Sorry, Michael was SO convincing in his movie! (I hope I dont need a sarcasm tag...)

From time to time, Ill ping on noteworthy articles about politics, foreign and military affairs. FReepmail me if you want on or off my list.
Listen, my cousins law firm is suing the DoD for allowing the troops to be exposed to the gas and Bush for lying. Got a problem with that?
Is this what is referred to as Gulf War Syndrome ?
That's my impression. Sarin and cyclosarin are organophosphates, like most pesticides, IIRC. I wonder if any other studies of organophosphates and brain imaging can be found. Here's a link to the abstract, it seems, of the article in question.
You may want to check the "Related Links" found in the upper right.
I wasn’t there, but from what I heard this is what “Gulf War Syndrome” was. The Army blew up an ammo dump and the nerve gas blew far and wide because it is heavier than air and there are no trees to block the wind. I am surprised the truth has finally come out.
Took over 15 years for us to hear the truth about WMD exposure during Gulf War I. That means that we should learn about the remaining WMD's that were found or transported elsewhere during Gulf War II right around 2018. Saddam would have been a fool to entirely destroy his WMD assets considering that he shared a common border with the maniacal Iranian mullahs.
Silly! The only thing that counts is a warehouse full of Fat Mans and Little Boys.
Those two statements don’t go together. If Bush lied, then there was no gas to harm the troops. Bush said there were WMDs and there were.
Your cousin should sue Bush for “allowing” Hurricane Katrina to obliterate a U.S. city.
So they basically told these guys for years that they were hypochondriacs...or suffering PTSD.
MRI's have evolved, as have other scanning techniques. Used to be they only used .6 Tesla machines, then 1.0, then 1.6 and now many teaching hospitals have a 3.0. I've heard there is a 7.0 in the works. Plus they have ways now of measuring fluid movement in the brain that shows things that MRIs don't. If I were one of these guys, I'd be relieved (because my symptoms aren't all in my head, figuratively, not literally, LOL)...plus I'd be mad for being dismissed for so many years by my government as a whiner.
Thanks Neverdem.
Unfortunately, I am aware. Those “arguments” had already played through me mind.
I know my enemy too well.
Your cousin is an ass.
This explanation for Gulf War Syndrome has been known to people on the internet ever since it happened.
Basically, there was a screwup when they went ahead and blew up an ammunition dump without considering that there might be poison gas in some of the shells.
But in time of war, unfortunately, screwups happen.
As for any of this coming out, let’s wait and see. At most, I would expect very selective spin from the media, blaming the first President Bush for this and completely exonerating clinton of any faults, naturally. And they will stick to their story that there were no WMDs by the time the second President Bush ordered the attack on Iraq.
And they will completely forget the daily news stories from the 90s, in which clinton and the Democrats in congress bombed the no-fly zone repeatedly because of the threat of Saddam’s WMDs and his refusal to admit inspectors. Or was it because of Monica? My memory is getting dim. . . .
“Your cousin is an ass.”
Your cousin is a lawyer.”
That removed the ambiguity.
