The levels that Bush stated in his SOTU are the levels that have been used for over 17 UN resolutions, and by every nation in the world that has intelligence agencies.

Now would these be the intelligence agencies that stated WMDs were no longer there or would this be the intelligence agencies Bush and Blair relied on with a little coaxing by the Pentagon? I can't remember which 'intelligence' agencies count now. Or are we back to relying on defectors that have a definite interest in seeing Hussein gone?

You claim you admit (now) they had WMD in the 80's. How big of you, considering they used them repeatedly.

Don't think I've ever stated otherwise. Of course they used them. They used them against the Kurds without serious condemnation from the administration at the time. You know those same Kurds that 'we' just have to go to war to 'save' now?

You have yet to admit they had them in the 90's and yet to tell us where you think they are now.

I don't know. Where are the kooks at the PNAC saying they 'are' currently? Iran? Syria? Anywhere but Saudi Arabia?

By your first paragraph you have just shown your complete and utter ignorance of the 16-17 UN resolutions which were agreed to UNANIMOUSLY BY EVERY MEMBER OF THE SECURITY COUNCIL with regard to the amounts of WMD Iraq had.

There is no sense talking with someone who so wilfully disregards the basic facts, all of which were discussed ad naseum last year.

Maybe we should all just declare a collective "Oops!". Would that make you feel any better? What's done is done, you need to get over it and move on with your life.

P.S. Some of us never cared if there were any WMD anyways. That viper pit (Iraq) needed a good cleaning for a decade. We (the USA) were just procastinating as usual.
