What I find interesting is that Saddam had the intention of developing WMDs, paid huge somes of money following his intention, and actually believed that he had them. I do think we are expecting a lot from our intelligence agency if we have the expectation of knowing more about the state of Iraq's WMD programs than Saddam himself.

What intrigues me is the part that the sons would have played or did play in the WMD programs or possible sale of them to terrorists.

After the sanctions would have been lifted, no telling what these wackos could have done, with Bin Ladens millions.

Ah, that would be the great military strategist that Saddam is (or was?)

BTTT for Excellent work: Providing classic material like this to those of us without the ability (and possibly the desire) to watch the show. This should be headline news around the world, but unfortunately it will probably only be here on FR :(

"I do think we are expecting a lot from our intelligence agency if we have the expectation of knowing more about the state of Iraq's WMD programs than Saddam himself."

That is a great point!

Moreover, if you disappoint the CIA, not much happens. If you are caught lying to Saddam, you get tortured and become dinner for some lions.
