So...the invasion was sold on the basis of obsolete weapons that might not work and in any case could not be delivered to the US?

So all that talk from the White House about mushroom clouds and uranium enrichment and aluminum tubes is down the memory hole? Condi Rice’s continuing assertions that “this regime was pursuing a nuclear weapon” are now inoperative?

Also, Saddam was in bed with Osama. Don’t forget that; it also was part of the narrative you fell for and amazingly to this day can’t admit to yourself was a pile of steaming BS.

No, it was sold on WMD dangers as well as the flaunting of UN rules, shooting at our planes in no fly zones, funding suicide bombers and now allowing inspectors access.

No, I never thought Saddam was in bed with Osama. Saddam himself was enough to justify invasion.

And you conveniently ignore the fact that the Duelfer Report reported that hundreds of Iraqis had looted Saddam's WMD sites when we attacked. No one knows what they took. Also, Duelfer said Saddam would have re constituted his weapons if allowed to stay in power.
