We live in an age of documents. There are no more secrets, only deferred disclosures.
Saddam Hussein's secret documents are measured by the shelf-mile and stored inside a secure but dusty facility near U.S. Central Command Headquarters in Doha, Qatar, and in several subsidiary sites.
Armed guards protect the unread dossiers. Three shifts of two hundred translators each work around the clock. Perhaps 5% of these captured documents have been studied so far, but their contents are about to shatter much of the conventional wisdom concerning Saddam's weapons of mass destruction.
The absolutists on either side of the WMD debate will be more than a bit chagrinned at the disclosures. The documents show a much more complex history than previously suspected. The "Bush lied, people died" chorus has insisted that Saddam had no WMD whatsoever after 1991 - and thus that WMD was no good reason for the war. The Neocon diehards insist that, as in Raiders of the Lost Ark, the treasure-trove is still out there somewhere, buried under the sand dunes of Iraq.
Each side is more than a little bit wrong about Saddam's WMD, and each side is only a little bit right about what happened to it.

I expect, since nothing has croped up recently in the MSM about this that they submarined it.
Well.
So much for submarineing......
As I have always suspected, Saddam's WMD did move into Syria, but it's a very Machiavelian tale.
Read on - it's long, but well worth it.
As always, have at it.
bump
Bu, bu, but...abcnbccbscnnmsnbcnyt said there never was any, and that Saddam was a good man, built hospitals and day care centers for the children.
(Self-Barf alert)
Bu Sh !
There were no WMDs.
point.
There were but hisory has been falsely written.
Good Luck.
Did rational people ever really doubt this?
“There were no WMDs.
point.
There were but hisory has been falsely written.”
Time to un-F### the written record and set it straight.
No. It just a long time to gather the facts and present a coherent argument - as opposed to the “Bush lied-people died” sloganeering of the left
“Saddam was supposed to supply proof of disposal as a condition of leaving him in power. He didn’t, game over.”
Game over with extreme prejudice
BTTT
Ain’t that the truth?!?!?!
If this is accurate, Democrats and their supporters will be so dissapointed that Bush didn’t lie.
From what I understand it’s accurate, but the LeftiZOIDZ will continue to poo-poo it and call it fabricated.
That horse is dead, Jim.........
Perhaps we should add a “DUmmie deathwatch alert” as a edit in the title
Matter of principal and all....
But if Bush did not lie, then the reverse is true— the demoncrats lie about there not being any wmd.
ping
I know, but forevermore the cry will be NO WMD’s. Even if they find them, they’ll be derided as “old” or “planted” or wrong kind......
