Get some help, you're going to blow a gasket after Bush wins this November.

IMHO it's clear that Saddam used WMD at every opportunity. He did not have a stockpile to be found because he used them all up on the Kurds and Iran.

Lets be clear on one thing. Saddam used environmental destruction as a WMD in the 1990's He syematically drained and destroyed the marshes in the south to destroy the livelihood and organisation of the Shiite people who live there, because they opposed his regime.

Now, if he had any chemical or biological weapons, he would have used those instead, (as he did with the Kurds) becasue they are a lot quicker.

They may be quicker, but do you think that he honestly wanted the entire world as pissed of at him as they would be if he used WMDs on the entire area of Iraq?

There are tons of caves and tunnels in Iraq that is a fact. Do you think they would let the UN inspectors look there. I don't think so. Now let me ask you where you think the weapons are. If you need more than 1 guess, you need help. Second whether the intelligence that Bush or any other president has gotten was wrong that is not the presidents fault. They are acting on the best information that they have at the current time. If we waited around for everything to play out so that we knew the truth, oh wait if we waited that long we wouldn't be here.

So you'd better get on the phone to your buddy George.Because he's up shit creek as far as WMD's are concerned,and I'm sure he'd desperately like some to show off just in time for the election.

As to intelligence, I've said it several times already, but I'll say it again.Bush had evidence from the UN weapons inspectors on the ground in Iraq telling him there was no evidence of WMD or WMD manufacture at the sites that US intelligence wanted inspected. He chose to go with other intelligence from less reliable sources because it better suited his plsanned invasion.

Hmmm...

You would think that what is "fact" to you, would be common knowledge to the military-machine that is in Iraq?

Come to think about it, if they have "caves" large enough, and hidden enough, to hide weapons caches that can be feared by even the mighty US of A, they should have one that could have hidden Saddam himself?

Also, what's keeping the troops from finding these hidden "caves" that are "fact" to you? What? Saddam's loyal men?
