New Iraqi President Calls Saddam 'Weapon of Mass Destruction'

By Kathleen T. Rhem
American Forces Press Service

BAGHDAD, Iraq, June 20, 2004 – The new Iraqi president said he feels there must have been elements of weapons of mass destruction inside Iraq.

"Saddam (Hussein) used chemical weapons, he used (them) against Iraqis inside Iraq," said Ghazi al-Yawer.

Yawer agreed to speak briefly June 19 with American reporters in Baghdad accompanying Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz. When asked to comment on the American political debate surrounding WMDs not being found in Iraq, Yawer said that wasn't the real issue.

"After all, the real issue is, 'Was (Saddam) a destabilizing factor in the area?' Definitely he was," Yawer said. "He was a weapon of mass destruction by himself."

Yawer said he was opposed to "military interference" in Iraq at the outset of coalition operations to get rid of Saddam, but soon became a believer.

"Every time I look at it, I find out (that) without a military interference we wouldn't have got rid of Saddam," he said. "The major good thing is we got rid of the most vicious regime that established a dynasty of villains in Iraq."

This has just GOT to be a major poke in the eye for the alphabet networks and lefties in general. Heheheh. (*Wicked Evil Grin*)

    Truth shall set you free - with help from the US military and the Bush administration - ping!

I am really liking this guy already.

Except the alphabets wont report it.

This cannot be stressed enough

Nope, they'll just ignore it and peddle more Abu Gharib porn.

TIME: Former Detainee Claims American Soldiers Shocked Genitals – Vein in Penis Ruptured – Claims He Was Forced to Have Sex with Uniformed Woman... http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1101040628-655389,00.html

He claims they ruptured his penis with electric shocks, then forced him to have sex with a uniformed female officer. Yeah, right.

Here is the case

No shock that the defendants are Delaware corporations, the plaintiffs are Iraqi nationals... and they filed in a friendly CALIFORNIA court.

They appeal to the 4th, 5th, 8th, and 14th amendments to the Constitution, which don't apply to Iraqi nationals, as and other silliness.

I'm sure they hope to appeal to the 9th Circus.

Strategery!

[LoudRepublicangirl]

You said it!

[NavySEAL F-16]

Pathetic. Two groups that wouldn't know the truth.

[NavySEAL F-16]

How much longer can any self-respecting (oxymoron, I know) journalist keep ignoring this story?

"Every time I look at it, I find out (that) without a military interference we wouldn't have got rid of Saddam," he said. "The major good thing is we got rid of the most vicious regime that established a dynasty of villains in Iraq."

I think that after the fall, people really found out just how bad this guy was. They knew he was bad, but many didn't know the full extent of it. If you don't know that any other way of life exists, how can you know how bad your life has been?

[Alamo-Girl]

Bump!

Yawer said. "He was a weapon of mass destruction by himself."

That's it, Yawer, your life membership in A.N.S.W.E.R. has been revoked.

[windchime]

Bump!

bout effin' time.

"After all, the real issue is, 'Was (Saddam) a destabilizing factor in the area?' Definitely he was," Yawer said. "He was a weapon of mass destruction by himself."

I've been calling Sadam the WMD's for months now. How else can you describe someone who murdered and buried thousands upon thousands of Iraquis? Sounds like mass destruction to me.

[Kaslin]

I've always said Saddam was a WMD and we have found them. Now what more proof do we need?

[Milligan]

I wish the press get off Iraqi prison scandal. Thank you, Uncle Teddy!

Here's a Iraqi newspaper article about Kuwaitees guards taking revenge on Iraqi prisoners.
