Yeah, he had me right up until Iraq and Afghanistan, too. And his comments reveal a fundamental misunderstanding of what is going on in each country. If I hear one more idiot talk about “Saddam had no weapons of mass destruction” I will scream. If you are an isolationist who thinks America should not intervene in other counteries’ problems, fine, be one. But to swallow and spew the lies about why we are still in both Iraq and Afghanistan (and will be for a long tme) and what we are trying to accomplish in both countries, is to reveal profound ignorance.
He’s wrong on Iraq and Afghanistan.””
He is definitely wrong on Iraq. I spent 3 days on a consulting venture with the man that was 2nd in command of the UN WMD team. This guy has been to Iraq on 40 inspection visits. He confirmed that Iraq had bioweapons labs scattered all over the country and most had large parts of the labs and equipment set up on skids. To facilitate the movement and concealment, Iraq had at least 3 spies embedded with the inspection committee that were able to warn the lab operators when their lab and area was on the inspection schedule. They simply moved the labs ahead of time and not long before the war, all were moved to Syria. Furthermore, there were indeed numerous terrorist training camps in Iraq. These are the facts from the guy who was on the scene as an expert, not some news-reporter with an agenda and zero expertise to sway public opinion.
“I spoke too soon.. He’s wrong on Iraq and Afghanistan.”
Ooops! I spoke to soon too!
