I believe WMDs were a legitimate selling point.

I will always believe WMDs were a threat. My question is "where did they go?"

[xzins]

I think they had small quantities and not large ones. I think they had access to recipes that made the mixing of WMDs a 48-72 hour process because they had precursor chemicals available.

I have an extremely close friend who when in Iraq was part of a group that uncovered just such a thing: a delivery system and nearby chemicals to be mixed to produce WMDs. The chemicals were not themselves WMDs, but they could readily produce WMDs.

Saddam was no dummy. He required a real threat; not an on-hand supply.

This explains the insistence by intel. sources that there were WMDs.....there were...but there weren't. The best of both worlds for Saddam.

All the MSM will accept as WMD is an ammo dump with totally prepared, mixed, WMD.

I would believe that Saddam had them transported, while Bush was trying to educate the UN idiots. The US had to get the trackings from "ours eyes in space."

The liberals did all they could to put off the starting of the war, insisting on having the UN continue the faux inspections and also to get the UN approval.

This gave Saddam time to get the weapons to Syria and other terrorist countries along with semis loaded with American cash.
