Insanity reigned in Iraq . You know that now. We all hoped that somehow the blood and treasure was worth something.

Is the defector lying now or then? Is he Muslim? Can they lie with moral impunity according to their religion?

I was sick when all that controversy was going on and watched every MSM program and the U N hearings. All the evidence pointed to existence and hiding of WMDs.

Hey, Wildcat! Some of us were inside the intelligence community at the time and in the aftermath. George W. Bush came into office with the idea of getting Saddam because he tried to kill George H.W. Bush. While it might be more accurate to say the Bush administration “contrived” the presence of WMD, it is simpler to say Bush Lied about the presence of WMD.

“The path to success was, however, made much smoother for Janabi by the fact that the Bush administration, along with the government of British Prime Minister Tony Blair, so desperately wanted to find an excuse to invade Iraq that it grasped at the flimsiest of straws that could be used to build its case. “

I have never heard one convincing argument as to what would compel Bush (or Blair) to lie about anything, or why they would desperately want to get into a war with Saddam for reasons other than what they said. And no, revenge for Saddam trying to assassinate Bush 1 is not a reasonable explanation.

That is plausible ( and I thank you for your service in the CIA) because it was the wrong target. The Saudis totally supported the Wahhabi sect Sunni attack with on America by funding the member of the House of Saud family, Osama Bin Laden !!and bush directly facilitated the departure of Saudi diplomats and oil sheiks out of our country in the 24 hours after their attack on OUR PEOPLE!! Why are 28 pages of the 9/11 commission with held from the American people? WHY?

Irrelevant. ‘Curveball’ died in November 2015 of a heart attack.

Your welcome, although it wasn’t with the CIA, but with military related agencies. When you look at the Prescott Bush ties with the Nazis and the Nazis ties with the Muslims, it becomes clear that this has all been a big charade to bring in the one-world government and religion.

The Good News is that has all been written down in the Bible two centuries ago, and Jesus wins! :-)

When Trump 180s on infanticide (he has already 180'd on it once before) they'll be reposting articles from The Guardian about how it's really beneficial to stick a pair of scissors into a baby's brain.

Because Trump.

At the time, there seemed to be a clear case for going to Afghanistan and trying to get bin Laden. I had always thought that the reasons for invading Iraq were tenuous at best. In retrospect, it is clear that it had been a colossal mistake, costing too many American lives and money we couldn’t afford. While Obama sabotaged what small success there was, we should have stayed out in the first place.

It wasn’t just US and England. Italian, German - every intel agency around the world said he had WMD. He used WMD against his own people. When the Marines invaded they found every Iraqi military base had protective equipment for their military. It was reported several times by several sources of the existence of aerial photos showing convoys taking material from Iraq to Syria reportedly WMD. If Bush lied, so did all the civilized world.

The invasion of Iraq was a brilliant tactical maneuver. It placed the US on both sides of Iran when Iran was trying its best to change Afghanistan and Iraq into an area with which the US had no control. It would have worked except for the election and capitulation of Obama.

With some guys it may just be an ego thing. It probably irked them no end when Saddam would thumb his nose at them after they roughed him up in the Gulf War.

After you pummel somebody, they're supposed to stay down. To do otherwise is a challenge that must be put down in even stronger terms.
