The heated debate over whether Americas war in Iraq was justified based on the evidence of potential weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) has been a point of contention between supporters and detractors of President George W. Bush since the battle began. But the recent WikiLeaks release of classified military information may be shedding new light on the subject.
As Wired reports, the WikiLeaks documents show that some of these toxic weapons have indeed been found:

in the last seven years we have been subjected to the biggest lies in human history. And not ONE Democrat or pro leftist will be held accountable fir it, despite THOUSANDS of American deaths.
I mourn for this nation.
Should be a bold headline on every morning paper - no?
Shhhhhhhhhh! They wouldn’t want W. to actually become more popular than Obama. That would eliminate the whole 2010-2012 election strategy playbook.
Why would this be a surprise?
Saddam used chemical WND’s on the Kurds.
This whole thing has the rotting stench of Soros.
I wonder of the WikiLeaks guy knew that the end result of his leaking this info would be vindication of Bush?
I have no doubt the suspicion is well substantiated.
The former Congressman,and long time member of the Armed Services Committee, the Honorable Duncan L. Hunter has written a book, “Victory in Iraq, How We Won The War”,which is currently available on Amazon and soon to be in major bookstores everywhere.
This man I championed ed for President kin 2008, but do to the Leftist media, and an incompetent campaign manager, few knew of this capable man of vision. He was, perhaps, our last, best hope.
In any case, do yourselves a favor and get his book. I will give it for Christmas presents this year.
These aren’t the droids (or WMDs) you’re looking for. Move along...
THOSE docs are probably all ready redacted.
It's no surprise at all. A small quantity of old components for blistering agents is an entirely different finding from, say, a stockpile of new components for a nuclear weapon.
As excited at this might make some folks, I don't think it rises to the level of a revelation. But let's keep reading... there may be more yet to find out about.
You know what we’ve always said...Bush will be vindicated.
Bush knew (without a teleprompter) what was going on
and what to do....one mistake...he should have exited to Iran.

Thanks for the info. I’m going to look for it right now. Hunter would have been my top choice in 2008.
It’s always puzzled me why the Bush haters apparently thought that So Damn Insane and Chemical Ali murdered all those bothersome Kurds with AIR FRESHENER.
They found the plant where they made nerve agent, they found stockpiles of nerve agent several times at military ammo dumps. And in each and every case they came back a day or two later and said, no, come to find out, its just agricultural pesticide.
They found it and re-defined it out of existence. I wondered then and I wonder now, who had that power? When Bush’s presidency hung in the balance, who had the power to re-define it out of existence?
Thanks to the embedded reporters we knew about it when it happened but even at that they made it disappear down the memory hole.
For people who don’t understand, if you dilute it and spread on farm fields, sure, its agricultural pesticide. If you spread it full strength on Iranian troops, its nerve agent. The Iraqi Army called it “bug poison”. And they used it to kill Iranians by the thousands. The plant manager was a Iraqi Army general, it was secured by a battalion of Iraqi Army troops, and its existence had never been revealed to the UN inspectors; they didn’t know about it. We knew about it thanks to the embeds and then it was erased from memory.
