Advocates of the war still claim that Saddam had WMD programs. But they can do so only by using a comically elastic definition of program that never would have passed the laugh test if attempted prior to the war. We haven't found WMDs? We have found some, but more to the point: We haven't found the stockpiles that Iraq SHOWED the U.N. Where'd they go, and can you prove it?

We haven't found WMDs? We have found some, but more to the point: We haven't found the stockpiles that Iraq SHOWED the U.N. Where'd they go, and can you prove it? Therein lies the question to those here who spout 'after the fact' opinions based on lack of WMD: so where DID they go? Or was the UN part of the whole scam?
A cogent answer to that question would be desirable if someone wants me to believe that 'opinion' is worth the slightest damn. If there was no WMD after all, and never was, then the UN is guilty of scamming us all and the inspectors have a lot to answer for. If it was destroyed, then when? Right before the invasion? Then Bush was correct. A long time ago? Then where's the proof? Is it still around? Then where? Who has it?
Alot of unanswered questions that need to be answered before we go off on this 'after the fact' nonsense.

Very good point. The only thing we know for sure is the Press isn't going to show us the truth. It's against their interest to report that weapons have been moved or hidden. Since I can't be there to see them myselves and they won't report the truth, I err on the side of killing the people who would behead me and mine. Just my own personal thing there.
