WMD FOUND IN IRAQ!

All reports are that Sarin Gas is being used against the troops in Iraq. This is the type of Weapons of Mass Destruction that the President wanted to destroy. This is the reason we went into Iraq to get rid of WMD like Sarin Gas. We need to make a loud and public issue of this. We need to bring WMD back to the forefront of why we went into Iraq. This sarin gas could only be manufactured in a large plant and there have to be more WMD factories somewhere. Let's get really vocal about this and put it in the face of the RATS that have claimed that WMD have not been found. They do exist and this is the latest proof. Let's make the RATS pay with this news!!!

I agree. Keep yelling until ALL the press covers the story, NOT just the Fox News Channel!!

[sibbel]

Sarin gas is a simple confluence of two chemicals.
You do not need big factories for that, but it might stem from Saddams arsenal.

But do not forget that Sarin has also been used in Tokyo by some crazy fanatic guru before, so after all it might be brewed by Al Sarkawi or some other shit head...

Osama has been dead for some time now.

We can't prove it, and therefore won't claim it, and AQ has no reason to.

[ambrose]

There have been numerous WMD finds in the past which turned out to be nothing... wait and see...

[gilliam]

link?

"I have a better idea...."

My idea is local ammo dumps should be inspected, or re-inspected. What, there was just one shell?

[GeorgeW23225]

Fox News Channel, Reuters, AP, CNSNews, MSN, you name it.......the story is all over the place INCLUDING T.V., all day!!

[gilliam]

not that it was confirmed, only that there were initial field tests done.

[GeorgeW23225]

I agree!!

Whatever it turns out to be, Hans Blix says it isn't proof that Saddam had WMDs. End of story (at least as far as the lamestream press is concerned).

In a related development, Dr. Blix also stated that the measured attractive force between two bodies is not necessarily evidence of Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation, that the diffraction of light by a slit is not evidence of the wave nature of light, nor is the photoelectric effect evidence of its corpuscular nature, the gravitational red shift does not necessarily confirm any aspects of the theory of relativity, and that the invariance of the speed of light in a vacuum only points out "ambiguities" in Einstein's formulations. Finally, Dr. Blix also discounted any evidence that contradicts the Flat Earth Theory, the geocentric universe, clairvoyance, Ptolemaic epicycles, and the Theory of Atlantis.

[gilliam]

We need to remember, that the enemy KNOWS where the shell came from, and is probably trying to figure out how to pre-mix the chemicals in the next road side bomb.

[GeorgeW23225]

Perhaps that is why it was the LAST episode!!

[gilliam]

Hans Blix says it isn't proof that Saddam had WMDs

My guess is he will be the last to acknowledge a find.

**My concern is that WMDs won't be found in sufficient quantities (or in such a manner as to convincingly prove the existence of additional quantities that would be "significant" enough) of WMDs to change The Public's perception from "Bush Lied" to "Bush Was Right." **

Hmmm...maybe the Mosques are home to WMD?

[jwalsh07]

Evidently it wasn't HE because the EOD guys ain't dead. That leaves Chemicals.

"Fox News Channel, Reuters, AP, CNSNews, MSN, you name it.......the story is all over the place INCLUDING T.V., all day!!"

That's great news. Although I bet CNN and Reuters are putting their own spin on it. . .i.e.:

Well, it's only 'one' shell.
It's not really a WMD.
Of course there were WMDs, but there was no imminent threat.
Bush lied about Niger cake.

[bayourod]

"This is the reason we went into Iraq to get rid of WMD like Sarin Gas. "

It might have been your reason but it wasn't President Bush's reason.

Bush never said that WMD stockpiles existed in Iraq or that our purpose of invading was to destroy stockpiles of WMD. He stated five reasons, none of which were to hunt for WMD stockpiles.

[rintense]

Already read on another board that these WMDs are probably from somewhere else since Saddam didn't have any. *SIGH* The denials are already beginning.

[Mears]

Oops,I missed the confirmation.Shouldn't post before I check my facts.

Thank God for FR,there probably will be no mention of the sarin in my Boston Globe tomorrow,too busy with the "weddings".

[VRWC_minion]

Yes, but they would not have used them if we didn't abuse their prisoners.
