I've asked this question of congressmen, senators, representitives, soldiers, retired military & the media, not one person has been able to answer it so, I'll throw it out here for you Mockers to take a shot at it.
If the powers that be in our country were so damn certain that Saddam had weapons of mass destruction why were the troops that made the initial push into Baghdad not equipped with the necessary gear to protect them from exactly that ?...I know for FACT that they had nothing that could be considered "protective" so, don't become argumentive with me over that.
The WMD factor was a complete lie, Saddam didn't have any chemical or nuclear weapons available otherwise he would have used them, all they found were some empty gas canisters and a small remote control glider that may have been used to drop small chemical/biological warhead bombs.
The British government told us that Saddam could launch chemical/nuclear attacks against London within 45 minutes ! ::lmao:: when in reality saddam could barely launch a scud against neighbouring Israel with any degree of accuracy.
The WMD lie was just another ingredient in the biggest lie ever told about why action against Iraq was necessary, the real reasons were - Oil - and the masses of money Bush and his cronies have made since the invasion and revenge - they needed arab whipping boys to punish in revenge for 9/11.
We need to punish the French, ignore the Germans and forgive the Russians - Condoleezza Rice.
