What "level were we told" the WMD's would exist at?

Forget the '16 words'. I could care less. I was thinking more along the laundry list that he listed at another point in the speech. You do remember don't you? Thousands of liters of one, thousands of another, tens of thousands of munitions to deliver said WMDs

It has recently come out that 500 tons of yellowcake was found inside Iraq

Haven't seen that. Do you have several valid sources other than Weakly Standard, World Nut Daily, or National Review?

Google this string: "500 tons" IAEA.

Here are a couple of hits from that search:

1. www.iaea.org (a pdf)
2. news.bbc.co.uk

There are lots more. But, admittedly, Google, the IAEA, the BBC, and Science could well be in on the same dastardly conspiracy being promulgated by National Review and The Weekly Standard.

The Weekly Standard and National Review are well respected, even by liberals, as conservative news publications. Your slight regarding them shows your complete ignorance of any of the facts regarding WMD, and more importantly, life in general.
