Wikileaks absolve Bush (bio weapons, Iraq - as if ..)

I’ve written about this before … but with the release of the WIKILEAKS documents, even Wired magazine acknowledges that US troops found chemical and biological weapons in Iraq. But don’t worry; if you liberals keep telling yourself “Bush Lied”… you’ll get through this.

By late 2003, even the Bush White House’s staunchest defenders were starting to give up on the idea that there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.

But for years afterward, WikiLeaks’ newly-released Iraq war documents reveal, U.S. troops continued to find chemical weapons labs, encounter insurgent specialists in toxins, and uncover weapons of mass destruction

In August 2004, for instance, American forces surreptitiously purchased what they believed to be containers of liquid sulfur mustard, a toxic “blister agent” used as a chemical weapon since World War I. The troops tested the liquid, and “reported two positive results for blister.” The chemical was then “triple-sealed and transported to a secure site” outside their base.

Well, as noted above .. and as lethal as sarin
is .. they probably didn’t want the al queda
beasts to go on a treasure hunt, and brutalize
whomever to get to it.

All this evidence...including things like your photos, Eagle Eye....are going to come back to bite the ones who
doubted and accused!

[Eagle Eye]

I personally saw barrels of DMS, chlorine, mixing equipment, and mortar equipment in a weapons bunker on an Iraqi airbase.

I believe that the DMS is what Chemical Ali used on the Kurds.

I was also in a meeting where a GS 15 said that the ISG had found a “smoking gun”. He then clammed up when he saw that not everyone in the room had a clearance badge for what he was saying.

The ISG had a huge warehouse full of documents and film and dozens of interpreters working in Doha to make sense of the millions of documents.

Undoubtedly there is a lot more than we know now.

I put this on my Facebook page with the caption...well, well, well.

WE ALL KNEW W WAS DOING THE RIGHT THING IN IRAQ!

(and every time I see a "tree shredder" I'm confirmed of it once again!)

[Eagle Eye]

I believe it was Polish troops found the sarin.

[Just mythoughts]

I am NOT one bit surprised that old Saddam was in possession of bio weapons... because I remember wild Bill Cohen and Maddie Albright making the tv circuit (because old bjClinton could not show his ‘red’ face) describing a 5 lb sack of sugar being the equivalent of the amount of anthrax old Saddam had.

Now how did this documentation get leaked? Sorry I have been busy with ‘life’ and this post does not describe how the documentation made its way into the public view.

As I remember Russia and China were NOT on our side as well as France and Germany when it came time to remove old Saddam. Personally, I think the silence in regard to what was discovered was not only a national security consideration but as much so not to expose the whose who around this globe that already had ‘oil’ contracts with Saddam in defiance of the UN which even perverted its own ruling with that sham of ‘oil’ for rotten ‘food’ program.

I’m sure you’re right.

Just the twisted partisans so confidently and
joyously lying and denying their existence AFTER
how many dozens of thousands of poor, innocent
Kurds were brutally poisoned and seeing the photos
was proof enough for me.

The press oughta be herded out behind the barn
and .......

Bless you, Lynn ... we all knew.

Thank you for the ping Starwise! ...think we knew this all along and while I wish our dear W would have fought back a bit more, I trust that he did what he believed to be the right thing for our country. imo, President Bush always placed the country above himself. May God always bless and protect this good man.

Yes, I have 'heard' of WikiLeaks, but really not more than that... But I am trying to catch up about who/what/where/when/why of this global leak. Like I said before 'life' has been very busy and so I am attempting to catch up.

[Eagle Eye]

Thanks.

At least I came back physically whole.

Not everyone else did.
