There were WMD in Iraq. Saddam used them against the Kurds and the Iranians.

Back in the Eighties, twenty years ago. And some of it came from American sources. Remember BCCI and the S&L scandal where it was revealed that we were funding Saddam's war machine against Iran which was also used against the Kurds, probably as test subjects and because they had rebel elements against Saddam's regime?

So exactly why does Iran continue to enrich uranium?

So they can supply their domestic electricity and export all that high-dollar oil? Last I heard, Iranians like money like everyone else.

I have no problem with funding any one’s war machine that wishes to do battle with the mad-mullahs of Iran.

BS! Any number of countries have offered Iran enriched uranium for the nuclear reactors as long as Iran allows those countries to remove the fuel rods from Iran.
If all Iran wanted to do was make money, they could swap oil for nuclear fuel and save the expense of setting up their own reprocessing capabilities. Now, why would Iran want to keep the old fuel rods contaiminated with all that plutonium?

>>>>LOL...yeah that’s it. I’m sure some of them like money, actually most.

Too bad the ones in control are calling for females that don’t wear burkhas to be killed.

The world didn’t confront Hitler early enough and we almost lost that war, but eventually we won out with over 30 million dead.

But so long as these mullas have electricity and impose their terror on their females, (as well as the rest of the world) it’s all good!
