If you go back through this thread you'll find several posts in which I clearly acknowledge that WMDs were not the reason the U.S. went to war in Iraq. We are focusing on that specific issue because that's what the article at the top of this thread is all about.

WMD was among the reasons just not the only one. UN resolutions and congressioanl resolutions make that clear.
I do not understand where anyone finds debate in that area.

Saddam has been shown to have proscribed items that include some WMD and means to deliver them. That means he was GUILTY. Thus the action to REMOVE him was right and proper ( not to mention overdue IMHO.

You see " the means to deliver them" is a part of WMD. Many people try to seperate that fact. A good solid read of 687 will see people understanding that very point if they read it objectively without any pre conceived bias.

Saddam is done and it took a CONSERVATIVE leader to take action where we saw a LIBERAL leader TALK about action to take but refused to DO it. This is why W was re elected and it is also why we just saw a change in Canada.

People want to talk about possible actions, people want to have the debate. The difference between the left and the right is that the right will actually take the next step to action where the left still wants to talk some more about it.

A couple of chemical shells were used in an IED trying to attack our solders. A couple were sickened. These were among the 550 UNACCOUNTED for chemical weapons that Saddam claimed were destroyed long ago. Where are the rest of them do you suppose?

Please tell me why 55 gallon drums of "pesticide" were located in ammunition dumps. Cmon now are you really that gullible as to belive such nonsense? LMAO @ pesticide.
