It is absolutely BAFFLING to me WHY all the news about this story is NOT just the simple truthe that WMD have been FOUND.

The optimum word is "stockpiles" of WMD's have not been found. Keep that in mind over the next few days.

indeed, but that's what happens when the media defines the issue.

I can see the japanese sitting around after Hiroshima saying - "well the US can't possibly have stockpiles of atomic bombs laying around".
