Was Saddam a WMD?
>> Wednesday, October 13, 2004
OK, so we are hearing that Iraq had no WMDs. Our intellegence- and everyone else's- was wrong. Hindsight being what it is, let's just leave that alone.
This new article tells of finding more mass graves.
Shocked investigators reported finding "thighbones the size of matchsticks" at what they believe is the site of one of Saddam Hussein's atrocities. Among the findings-were the skeletons of unborn babies and toddlers clutching toys.
A baby had been shot in the back of its head and was found still being clutched by its mother, who had been shot in the face. The discovery was reported as Tony Blair came under mounting pressure to apologise to Parliament for the misleading intelligence claiming Saddam had weapons of mass destruction.
It will strengthen the Prime Minister's case that despite the intelligencefailures the war to topple the Iraqi dictator was justified by his record as a mass killer of his own people.
Some 300,000 people are thought to have been killed during Saddam's regime. Iraq's human rights ministry has reportedly identified 40 possible mass graves across the country.
In my opinion that makes Saddam & his regime a WMD unto itself.
DOUG CHIMES IN:
How can you claim Saddam didn't have WMD's when:
- Saddam has used WMD's in the past
- Almost every intelligence agency thought Saddam had more WMDs than we have already found.
Brits
CIA
Russia and the UN agreeing that Saddam was in material breach and the cease fire signed in 1991 is no longer in effect
Russia helping Saddam build long range missiles
The reason France didn't care - The stash of Sarin found
- The 36 WMD artillery shells found. here, here, here, and pre-war
- The chemical/biological weapons factories found
- The raw material and documentation for said factories found in scientists homes pix
- The sarin bomb on it's way to Amman, Jordan
From Syria? - The fact that Saddam used WMD's on the Iranians and his own people
- The 1.77 metric tons of uranium removed from Iraq
- The missile body parts with radioactive traces found in Amsterdam
- The fact that Saddam tried to purchase more uranium from Niger as verified by Joe Wilson.
- The fact that the weapons that Saddam was known to have had have not been proven to be destroyed
- The fact that Saddam continuously suffled things around prior to a UN inspection. And that he kicked out the inspectors.

He is that and much more than I am sure I should not say in a public forum.
The disconnect between what we see on the ground in Iraq and what Kerry and company are selling
How can the media say there was no WMD in Iraq when they themselves know that soldiers and reporters had to betreated for nerve gas exposure. The goal posts moved so much that even when the terrorists used a sarin gas shell in a roadside bomb, it was no big deal.
