Wikileaks reveals WMDs

[hipeter924]

It always gets me how Democrats conveniently forget about their own Democrat Party Leaderships belief in WMD's.

I'm not surprised though..(an inconvenient truth... I suppose).

believing there might be something, and invading a country because you believe there might be something are not the same.

the little difference is the invasion.

an inconvenient truth, i suppose.

Those same Democrats also voted to authorize the war. Another Inconvenient truth.

And the war in Vietnam.
And democrats well before them supported the Jim Crow laws and slavery.

Yep, a real capability there for SH. Study history, Horse.

Jake, I will let history speak for me:

Bill Clinton: 2-17-98:
“…Let there be no doubt we are prepared to act; But Saddam Hussein could end this crisis tomorrow, simply by letting the weapons inspectors finish their mission. He made a solemn commitment to the international community to do that, and to give up his weapons of mass destruction a long time ago now. One way or the other, we are determined to see that he makes good on his own promise…”

..... pray for us sinners, now, and in the hour of our death

Since when does America give a fuck about a bunch of dead brown people?

We didn't give a crap about the Kurds anymore than we gave a shit about the Tusis.

Just ask the Jews how much we cared about a bunch of non-WASPs before someone bombed us.

 

[JBeukema]

yup
it was also about his support for terrorists

?

You mean he supported the Pinochet coup? He trained the Muhajadeen?


Oh wait... that was us...


What were you saying again?

 

[JBeukema]

There is a huge reason to argue over it. This war was prosecuted on the basis of a falsehood. There has been no accountability for that..none. And the tax payer has been left holding the bag.

There has been nothing to at least try to make sure this doesn't happen again.

So yeah..it needs to be pressed. And hard.

how many fucking times do libs need to be told that the War in Iraq was NOT just about WMD before you fucking wake up and understand it?

It was also about this:

He made pappa look bad

most of the people we trained became the northern alliance, and we did NOT work with Bin Laden at all

 

[JakeStarkey]

Much of whom we worked with became the muhajadeen, and much of that became Taliban. Quit being a fauxconservative brownnoser, divecon. You are right there with your ass buddy Dr. House.

you are a fucking moronic idiot who is totally devoid of fact and honesty

 

[JakeStarkey]

You, in other words, can't refute what I am saying.

The liberation of Iraq (Operation Iraqi Freedom) was justified after all, not that I ever had any doubts. Not only did we free their people and put an end to genocide, but we also found chemical weapons and it turns out that Saddam Hussein was working on a WMD program after all.

By late 2003, even the Bush White House’s staunchest defenders were starting to give up on the idea that there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.

But WikiLeaks’ newly-released Iraq war documents reveal that for years afterward, U.S. troops continued to find chemical weapons labs, encounter insurgent specialists in toxins and uncover weapons of mass destruction.

An initial glance at the WikiLeaks war logs doesn’t reveal evidence of some massive WMD program by the Saddam Hussein regime — the Bush administration’s most (in)famous rationale for invading Iraq. But chemical weapons, especially, did not vanish from the Iraqi battlefield. Remnants of Saddam’s toxic arsenal, largely destroyed after the Gulf War, remained. Jihadists, insurgents and foreign (possibly Iranian) agitators turned to these stockpiles during the Iraq conflict — and may have brewed up their own deadly agents.

In August 2004, for instance, American forces surreptitiously purchased what they believed to be containers of liquid sulfur mustard, a toxic “blister agent” used as a chemical weapon since World War I. The troops tested the liquid, and “reported two positive results for blister.” The chemical was then “triple-sealed and transported to a secure site” outside their base.

Three months later, in northern Iraq, U.S. scouts went to
look in on a “chemical weapons” complex. “One of the bunkers has been tampered with,” they write. “The integrity of the seal [around the complex] appears intact, but it seems someone is interesting in trying to get into the bunkers.”

Course I can, bud. It's a beautiful day outside. In a moment, I am going to sit in the gazebo and enjoy the woods, and have a glass of wine. I love high autumn. Chill for a while, dive.

They don't care. In fact, as in the other threads on this topic, you will see people either

a) ignoring it, or
b) trying to explain why these WMDs aren't really the WMDs we were looking for.

They being the American people or users of this forum?

 

[mal]

There were 109 Facilites that were Locked and Sealed by the UN that had Banned Long Range Missiles and WMD...

By the time were done playing footsies with the French at the UN and we Finally Invaded, those Facilities had been Emptied...

Google it.

They aren't "Never Existed"... They are Fucking MISSING.



peace...

 

[Big Black Dog]

Does this mean that Bush wasn't really an asshole like all the liberals claim?

liberals. non-thinkers and Bush haters.

Look, this is not news. Saddam Hussein was gassing the Kurds by the village. Over one million Kurds in the North of Iraq were killed are permanently affected by nerve gas and other WMD's.
one of the main reaosns why WMD's ( BTW Both Bush AND Clinton stated they belived Iraq had WMD's) were so hard to find is that because Hans Blix was incompetent or he was being paid off...Meanwhile, Hussein's Republican Guard was busily moving stocks around while UN Inspectors were being told where to go and where they could go.

 

[JakeStarkey]

The extreme wacks are exposed by their evidence such as this: "These rounds were most likely left over from the [Saddam]-era regime. Based on location, these rounds may be an AQI [Al Qaeda in Iraq] cache. However, the rounds were all total disrepair and did not appear to have been moved for a long time.”

This is why folks like Solace and Avatar431 are given no consideration.

This is demonstrably false. Do you really wanna open yourself up to that? The evidence that bin Laden was a CIA asset is glacier like. If you could avoid the vitriol for once, I'd be happy to engage you in that debate.

Ready? If not, retract your statement please.
