And all this time I thought they promised over and over the program was for energy only

To clarify: When someone is found stabbed to death, and the knife is never found; can we conclude that there never was a knife simply because it wasn’t found?
And all this time I thought they promised over and over the program was for energy only
Huh? He USED them on the kurds.
It’s fascinating to know the U.S. and Rummy were accused of “selling wmd’s” to Saddam and were blamed for them being used...
but yet, it’s as if it’s simply impossible for him to have somehow had them once we liberated Iraq!?
When did he and his sons turn over a new leaf?
Besides, there were many reasons to liberate Iraq. Saddam was shooting at our pilots enforcing the no fly zone, so the treaty was broken from the first gulf war.
He exploited the oil for food debacle.
He was a dangerous terrorist, an enemy of America and so were his sons.
He wasn’t indicating he had learned from attacking Kuwait, Israel, Iran and Saudi Arabia.
And ummmm Scott Ritter has zero answer as to why so many hypocrats DEMANDED Saddam be removed, let alone voted for the war in the first place!
What was Scott Ritter into?
Was it little girls or little boys?
Little boys, I think it was.
Little, 8 year old boys.
Would somebody tell me why this ego-maniac jerk is not in Leavenworth for treason???

Yep. Ritter is like Helen Thomas at a press conference - “What about the Jews?”
“What about the Jews?”
Ritter, bought and paid for by the Arabs. Would be worth a congressional investigation into his income since about 1998.
I’m sure Saddam was just saving this stuff for a rainy day.

VIENNA – The United States has informed an international agency that oversees nuclear materials that it intends to move hundreds of tons of uranium from a sealed repository south of Baghdad to a more secure location outside Iraq, Western diplomats close to the agency say.
However, the International Atomic Energy Agency has taken the position that the uranium is Iraqi property and the agency “cannot give them permission to remove it,” a diplomat said.
There were 500 chemical weapons found. But we’re not supposed to talk about those.
Failed logic.
A large segment of the culture doesn’t respect their OWN lives, so a first strike and the impending 72 virgins reward is fine with the few in control of the red button.
Moreover, they don’t necessarily need to “launch” a nuke, they could theoretically set one off, and/or utilize a dirty bomb inflicting mass casualties on Israelis.
Besides, al-qaeda isn’t a country or government that the U.S. or Israel can target, they could set up a rocket base in the desert or a cave in Iran and then scurry back into their rat holes after launching a nuke at Israel and Iran could act like they know nothing about it!
Hitler ordered his generals to destroy Germany, because the Germans didn’t deserve to survive since they’d failed him. And THESE loons actually BELIEVE God would somehow see fit for children to strap explosives on themselves and murder other children.
So counting on the insanely irrational to behave rationally is insanely dangerous!
Sure, the vast majority of Iranians wouldn’t pull the trigger, but of course they don’t hold the gun, as usual!
The Iranian people are NO more propagandized by their government than US citizens are propagandized by their government. That is to say, we are ALL subject to the manipulative and predetermined decisions of our authoritative governments, regardless of constituent lives or money spent.
.....................
Your comparing the US to Iran overlooks something, a major difference. Iran Islamic. Iran’s Koran based religion guarantees, should the US bomb Iran, it will NOT react in a rational manner. They will react like those who follow Mohammed’s dictates always do.
Iran Islamic = Iran is Islamic
Send treats to the troops...
Great because you did it!

Can we question Ritter’s patriotism yet?
So the U.S. government:
Stones women to death for getting themselves raped?
Whips people in the public square for not attending daily prayer enough?
Hangs or at lest whips those that dress too provocatively?
Executes those that speak out too aggresively against the government?
Your right. Iran is just like America. I know I felt right at home all the years I spent there.
Persian...
What's a "spetor" of death?
