Great post, sorry if already posted.

Great story, indeed. I like Larry Elder. He knows how to cut through the BS.

[RLK]

I have no use for Hussein. I believe he was a half-mad tyrant. Having said that, I suspect the WMD talk was hype to create a super boogie man to justify a war. I suspect we won't find much. As far as the Iraqi scientists comments, they'd better say what their saying. This wouldn't be the time to be offending the wrong people.

According to the hype, WMD were everywhere like dandelions. We have managed to find hidden loot stolen from the museums, but little in the way of WMD.

I like the scenario on another thread where the author said that Iraq's WMD were destroyed without Saddam's knowledge, and the money for ongoing WMD development stolen by Saddam's sons and generals.

Boy the "boogie man" sure fooled the rest of the world --- if RLK is to be proven correct.

We can't find Saddam Hussein either, but that doesn't mean he doesn't (or didn't) exist.

[Wilhelm Tell]

The U.S. and allies removed the worst weapon of mass destruction -- Saddam Hussein and his murderous thugs. Anything in addition to that is a bonus.

Bush may have already found the WMD. But is waiting for the democrats to spend
millions of dollars on campaign adds before breaking the news. BINGO. Dumbo
has outwitted the democrats once again. They will never learn.

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

I don't need to see no steeking WMD's. Saddam was bad, the Iraqi people were brutalized and we freed them. No WMD's? So what!

[Verginius Rufus]

After reading the headline, I thought, "Well, the WMD may be well hidden, but Larry Elder should be easy to find."

Bump for later reading.

I suspect the WMD talk was hype...

Besides the bio-labs on wheels, the Tigres has been polluted with mustard gas (compounds), cyanide, and binary munitions (sure, precursors nearby, but no VX, etc.) have been found. Also, lots of radioactive by-products and precision machining equipment (yes, no bomb). This will take time...to prove it to the den of thieves in NY.

Plus chemical warfare training manuals, chem suits, general NBC training of the Republican guard, atropine distributed to the populace, radio intercepts, humint, etc.

No, this stuff will be found (in large quanities).

If all the talk of WMD was just hype how do you explain the neocons' 1998 letter to Clinton - urging him to do what Bush recently did?

Everyone has been looking for the hardware and the physics. Even harder to find and more important will be the Technology. I have no doubt, should this group or similar minded leaders come to power, having the technology in "stand-by", they could have WMD ready in short order.

Another thought would be if the technology is well developed, these scientists can find a ready market for it. That's one reason they may not be that cooperative in finding evidence.

[lurky]

The administration urges patience, noting that thousands of sites remain to be inspected.

Before the war, opponents urged patience. After all, they claimed, the "inspections were working." With major fighting concluded, however, the very same people demand an immediate "smoking gun" to prove the existence of weapons of mass destruction.

Does anyone else see this? Pre-war:

Bush admin: "Let's go already!" Opponents: "Be patient"

post-war:

Opponents: "Let's go already!" Bush admin: "Be patient"

Plus la change, plus la meme chose.

Spin it, Wilhelm. The fact is that the Bush admin told us they had incontiveritble proof of WMD, hence war. The casus belli, dude. The very reason for war. They should find them, and quick, else they (or the Pentagon) has some splainin' to do.
