The United States went to war against Baghdad last year citing a threat from Iraq's weapons of mass destruction. No actual banned arms have been found.Correction:
The United States went to war against Saddam Hussein's regime last year citing his refusal to abide by a host of United Nations resolutions, including Resolution 1441 which demanded he account for his weapons programs. A nascent program and plans for WMDs were found, as were missiles that exceeded the range permitted under the restrictions Saddam Hussein agreed to when his government was spared during the 1991 Gulf War.

We have not even found all of what Saddam admitted to in his last list, or so I believe.

Exactly. Unfortunately, it won't be sold that way to the gullible members of the public by the democrats in an election year. One of Bush's primary assets, his credibility, is being seriously challenged with some success. The democrats may very well score major points with this report.... unless the republicans conduct a persistent campaign to educate/remind the public.

Exactly. However, if the media repeats the lie enough, it will become the truth.

Oh please. If we have to go to war to enforce UN resolutions, we will need you and I to pick up guns and start fighting. We need to attack India for failing to hold plebiscite in Kashmir and we need to attack every po-dunk state in Africa who openly flout UN resolutions.
