Back in 2002, Bush said Iraq had WMD.   But he was confused.   What did he think WMD stood for?

I see Diamond went to the Rick Santorum School for the politically blind, the WMD's found were pre gulf war degraded munition, even the DOD say nope not the ones, I think Bushie meant Woman's Massive Derrieres and he was hopin' to check 'em out, oh and add Jesi to the School where diamond and Rick Santorum went

Bush was elected because we have a corrupt goverment and also because his brother is the gov. of Flordia (the state where all the confusion took place and thus turned the tide in his direction)  Yes, I think in his spare time he wears a TARD helmet and drools.  He probably rides a short bus to his functions and frequently wets himself.  Pray this next 2 years go fast.  Also, next time remember to vote Democratic.  What is the current # of soldjers that have been killed????? I think it is over 3,000 lives ended now.  And not 1 WMD found.  What a RETARD!!!!!!!!!!!!

I heard that Saddam had indeed moved all evidence of WMD's out of the country using Water Trucks that would carry weapons over the border and bring water back for the northern cities.  Syria and Jordan were both mentioned as places he probably would have hidden the weapons.  In light of the news last week of meetings held with his son's and Cabinent Members that were taped in 1995, his sons spoke of moving weapons in a game of hide and seek with the U.N. Inspectors.  The same news story stated that Saddam had warned the U.S. of impending terrorist attacks,this was during the Clinton Administration.  I have always believed that we were baited into invading Iraq in 2003 by intellegence that came from high up in the Saddam regime.  We had intelligence in 1998 that we used to call for military use against Iraq.  Saddam receives more from his culture by having stood up to the U.S. twice and loosing and still fighting us by making a mockery of his trial.  When he dies he will be a Martyr and also have his place in history.  He wanted us to come and beat him with a war, I think that he thought that the people of Iraq would revolt and want him back, or the very least he would escape his country.  We know that he had these weapons and used them against Iran in the war between Iraq and Iran.  He also used them against his own people.  All of the sudden he has none, well that is by design to discredit the U.S. for invading Iraq in the first place.\n\nIf you think about it rationally you will question why did we have the same exact intellegence for several years only to have the intelligence blow up in our face.  Why?  Just ask yourself why?  Because it was fed to our people on the ground over there, in the front lines of the intelligence community we knew weapons were there and then they weren't.  In 1995 they spoke of playing hide and seek with the weapons then in 2003 they vanished from our people who invaded the country.  We should not be yelling and screaming that we were lied to and went to war.  We should be yelling and screaming as to who now has control of these weapons and whose hands they may fall into.  We can only rationally think that the weapons are marked: To The U.S.A.  Think about it.  These weapons were designed to be used, where will they be used?

Yes there have been numerous documents and tapes released by the government implementing Saddam's regime talking about where to take the WMD's and how to lie to the UN.  I don't know where to get ahold of those documents though, I heard it on Limbaugh's radio show, try calling him he would undoubtedly know.  When I was there we found numerous empty carriers for large warheads and plenty of chemical and biological weapons.  But WMD's are not the only reason for Iraq, him supporting and paying terrorists is just like having WMD's.  There are many anti-American HUGE paintings on buildings displaying the bombing of America and many had mushroom clouds.  I believe since we told Saddam we was coming he got them out.  The terrorist network over there is crazy.  If you have any other questions email me

Iraq's arsenal of weapons of mass destruction was not captured by US forces who heroically brought down Saddam Hussein's regime three years ago this week. It vanished before they arrived.\nIsraeli intelligence reported before the US-led invasion that starting in late summer 2002 Saddam's WMD arsenal was shipped by truck convoy to Syria. Recently, documents seized from Iraq after the fall of the regime were released to the public. Those documents revealed that under the direct command of former Russian prime minister and KGB boss Yevgeny Primakov, Russian Spetnaz forces oversaw the transfer of Iraq's WMD to Syria ahead of the US-led invasion. These reports have been corroborated by Saddam's Air Vice Marshall General Georges Sada.\n\nSo rather than being destroyed or secured, Saddam's WMD arsenal was simply moved from one rogue regime with intimate ties to terror organizations to another rogue regime with intimate ties to terror organizations.\n\nOf course, American Media will NOT report this, it will prove Bush right, and then they would look stupid.\n\nMichael Moore, thanks:\nFriday, 23 June 2006 \nWhen News Lies \n\n\nWHEN NEWS LIES\nMedia Complicity and The Iraq War\n\n\nBy Danny Schechter, The News Dissector\n\n\n\nA new book from Danny Schechter offers an up to date indictment of the role media played in promoting and misreporting the war on Iraq. It is an analysis of how and why the media got it wrong that pinpoints the failures of journalism and the collusion of media companies with the Bush Administration. The author of EMBEDDED: Weapons of Mass Deception (Prometheus 2003), an account of the TV coverage of the US invasion, returns with a more comprehensive, updated and insider look at the media complicity that Schechter argues "made the war possible."\n\n\n\n"Most of the anti-war movement focused on the crimes of the Bush Administration ignoring the mainstream media, its far more effective accomplice," says former network producer Danny Schechter (ABC, CNN). "The government orchestrated the war while the media marketed it. You couldn't have one without the other."\n\n\n\n WHEN NEWS LIES includes the feature -length DVD of the prize-winning film WMD (Weapons of Mass Deception). The book will also include the complete script as well as a discussion of the challenges of exposing media with media with a documentary. It chronicles the media war fought alongside the military campaign and the struggle to stand up for truth.

Excuse the ramblings of a Conservative Gulf War Vet but there were WMD's there in 1992 when I was there - I saw some that were left behind in Kuwait when the Iraqi's bugged out.  I haven't heard or seen any firm evidence of their destruction - perhaps not public info.  Since they were there and there is no record of their destruction - where do you think they went?

OMG you are so uninformed it's almost scary. First of all, "This is about as bad as drinking and driving with a car load of friends and they all die but you in an accident." You mean like Ted Kennedy and Mary Jo? \n\nWMDs - International intel ALL said Saddam had WMDs. The United Nations (HA!) thought he had WMDs. The fact that there weren't a lot of WMDs found could be due to the fact that Saddam was given months of notice before the allied forces swooped in. \n\nShouldn't Bill Clinton have to face charges for not taking Bin Laden from the Sudan when they offered him? Shouldn't Clinton have to answer to the country for slashing our military and intel budgets? How about the fact that he cut and run from Somalia, teaching terrorists that all they have to do is hit us really hard, and we'll run with our tails between our legs. \n\nWho lied?!?!?\n\n"One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them.

As far as Bush lying about WMD's in Iraq, he didn't.  Please read the first link below.\n\nAs far as Bush lying about Saddam Hussein and Al Qaeda not being connnected, he didn't.  Please read the second and third links below.\n\nI'm tired of all of the sheep walking around spouting crap.  I'm not the biggest fan of Bush, but I wish people would read for 30 seconds before they open up their mouth.

Decider made me laugh and cry at the same time.\n\nWASHINGTON — The United States has found 500 chemical weapons in Iraq since 2003, and more weapons of mass destruction are likely to be uncovered, two Republican lawmakers said Wednesday.\n\nApparently, the president thought it was a good idea to hide this information from us for 3 years?

Well, the only reason Iraq was invaded was for oil,I mean come on...why else Iraq? There was no proof to begin with, but there was proof for Syria, Libya, North Korea, Oh but no. We just had to ivade a country with no evidence for them having WMD's didnt we? And i mean you just have to look through the lines at this one..

Haa! It's so easy to answer. Coz bush is a moron. I truly sympathize with him, he's a 'special' child, with no brains of his own. What he's really good at is cattle-rearing. and I say that's a very great skill in itself. \n\n A guy answered that the US found uranium and fertilizers turned into chemical weapons. Well, whaddya know, if I have a band of hooligans with automatic weapons and I barge into your house and take control....I can produce a hand-grenade out of your closet in a matter of jiffy. Got it?!!\n\n Weapons of Mass Destruction was only an excuse for the US to invade Iraq. With Iraq being head by such a lunatic as Saddam Hussain, he'd have detonated the WMD (if he had any) at the time the US initiated the attacks. When you try to harm a pussy cat, even she takes out her claws for attack Then why didn't Saddam when he had WMDs.\n \n Why can't people understand such simple things.

No, they didn't lie, they all new there were WMDs in Iraq.   However, since nothing was found during the search, they all took that used it against Bush because they don't like him.

WMDs haven't been. The useless remains of WMDs have been found. What has been found amounts to nothing more than toxic waste which is easily found in Iraq; and in the United States for that matter.

Shock and Awe I believe was the promotional for this time round...(hehe-sry). There WERE WMD's, proof of that even goes back to 1980!  I mean, are some people stupid, and just don't know that he gased Kurds...poof, trial and death by hanging now for that eh? (anyway)...AND Saddam Hussien used chemical weapon munitions against Iranian troops.  So- I rest my PROVABLE case there. \nIt may have been better to not invade Iraq, I dunno, but the fact remains, he had WMD's which had to be moved quickly- which some suspect may be in the hands of Syria today.

It proves that if Clinton (whose quote this is) had actually done his job as President, we wouldn't have the issues we have now. He stood by and let this happen. And yes, he did have WMD. His translated Presidential Office tapes have revealed this:\n\nIraq's arsenal of weapons of mass destruction was not captured by US forces who heroically brought down Saddam Hussein's regime three years ago this week. It vanished before they arrived.\nIsraeli intelligence reported before the US-led invasion that starting in late summer 2002 Saddam's WMD arsenal was shipped by truck convoy to Syria.
