    By Tim Ripley NEW satellite images of an Iraqi nerve gas plant show that the site has been rebuilt after being bombed by the United States, but there seems to be little sign that production of chemical weapons is under way.

    I will keep this brief... It seems to me that the war in Iraq has its share of problems in the chaotic aftermath of Saddam's fall. Not that I never supported it. I did from the start and I still do today. I believe it was and is a neccessary war, and the terrorism that is going on there today proves it so. I am not going to bother getting into the details as to why this war was just and neccessary, and how it has produced more good than bad, because I think it all has been said...
