Saddam's supposed possession of WMD was reported by numerous intelligence agencies world-wide. Jordan, Russian, Brit, US, Israel and more were all certain that he had WMD and would use them in the region. He DID use chemical WMD against his own people in Northern Iraq. It was also reported that he purposely inflated reports of amounts in his possession in order to frighten his neighbors in the region. It makes perfect sense all taken together, and WMD was only one of the many reasons we went in there.

Yep, and I'm tired of all this WMD talk... he had them, but you don't accuse someone of possession of narcotics unless you actually catch them with narcotics- what they're not able to do is to check the neighbor's house... Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying, look at Iraq's neighbors, would you have illegal stuff in your house when the cops announce they're going to come search the very next day? No, you'd get rid of that stuff. The search teams did find storage facilities that had once held chemical weapons (trace amounts and empty storage containers)... And if you still don't believe he had WMDs I invite you to ask the Kurds of their opinion on the matter.

AMEN to that - Iraq was keen to fly Soviet made aircraft to Iran to avoid giving them up to the US - stands to reason that WMDs were also given to other countries. Even if not, what is a WMD anyway? Chemical or nuclear - same thing. We know Saddam used chemical weapons on his people and on the Kurds. I think the only reason he didn't use them on us in the first Gulf War (I say "us" cause I was there) was because our retaliation would be nuclear... At the end of the day, a dictator is a bully - the best way to stop a bully is simply to stand up to them.

Obama was seen as the liberal "savior" for the media and the liberal masses. But he's just another man, and inept as president.

The "apology" tour is a key ingredient to our current ME situation. But let's face it - since after WWII, has the ME ever been stable??? What is the common denominator?

OIL...

Give them money, and they are a problem - take away their money, and they are nothing (again)...

Oil makes the world go round (literally).

Bush vs. Obummer? The media is enamored with it's "savior", so it isn't surprising in the least to me that mainstream media isn't talking about facts.
