apparently, invading iraq was, and still is, a dumb idea.

Only now it's dumb because they had wmd's, yep. :tu:

LOL, It certainly appears that way.

First, there was endless bitching because "No WMD's were found". Now, there is still bitching after the "No WMD's" lie is exposed.

Sure glad I am not President Bush, anything the poor guy does isn't good enough for Democrats.

The real reason for the criticism is simply because President Bush is a conservative Republican. Liberal Democrats will do anything to discredit the President and other Republicans so they can get back into power and tax-and-spend on social programs until the United States is destroyed.

As I previously stated in other posts, WMD's have been found. We know for a fact Saddam had them because he used them on his own people. Further, at least one sarin gas shell was exploded in an IED. The (liberal) media has been suppressing discovery of WMD and other positive gains accomplished by the coalition forces.

The FAX I have posted shows that the liberal press has LIED about WMD's being discovered in Iraq. These chemical weapons ARE WMD and were NOT destroyed prior to the invasion.

Ousting Saddam was only one of the goals for the invasion of Iraq. Dealing with terrorism is another.

For anyone who does not know why the United States is in Iraq, and would like to learn:

Key Findings:

Saddam Husayn so dominated the Iraqi Regime that its strategic intent was his alone. He wanted to end sanctions while preserving the capability to reconstitute his weapons of mass destruction (WMD) when sanctions were lifted.

Saddam's primary goal from 1991 to 2003 was to have UN sanctions lifted, while maintaining the security of the Regime. He sought to balance the need to cooperate with UN inspections - to gain support for lifting sanctions - with his intentions to preserve Iraq's intellectual capital for WMD with a minimum of foreign intrusiveness and loss of face.

The introduction of the Oil-For-Food program (OFF) in late 1996 was a key turning point for the Regime. OFF rescued Baghdad's economy from a terminal decline created by sanctions. The Regime quickly came to see that OFF could be corrupted to acquire foreign exchange both to further undermine sanctions and to provide the means to enhance dual-use infrastructure and potential WMD-related development.

By 2000-2001, Saddam had managed to mitigate many of the effects of sanctions and undermine their international support.

Saddam wanted to recreate Iraq's WMD capability - which was essentially destroyed in 1991 - after sanctions were removed.

Saddam aspired to develop a nuclear capability - in an incremental fashion, irrespective of international pressure and the resulting economic risks - but he intended to focus on ballistic missile and tactical chemical warfare (CW) capabilities.

Iraq Survey Group (ISG) judges that events in the 1980's and early 1990's shaped Saddam's belief in the value of WMD. In Saddam's view, WMD helped to save the Regime multiple times. He believed that during the Iran-Iraq war chemical weapons had halted Iranian ground offensives and that ballistic missile attacks on Tehran had broken its political will. Similarly, during Desert Storm, Saddam believed WMD had deterred Coalition Forces from pressing their attack beyond the goal of freeing Kuwait. WMD had even played a role in crushing the Shi'a revolt in the south following the 1991 cease-fire.

The former Regime had no formal written strategy or plan for the rivival of WMD after sanctions. Neither was there an identifiable group of WMD policy makers or planners separate from Saddam. Instead, his lieutenants understood WMD revival was his goal from their long association with Saddam and his infrequent, but firm, verbal comments and directions to them.

don't forget the addendum:

oh what a tangled web..

..of lies

Indeed.

Remember the old liberal "talking point" of "No WMD have been found in Iraq"? I do.

It was hammered on over and over, despite continuing discoveries of chemical WMD in Iraq.

Date of manufacture and "freshness" doesn't enter into the "No WMD in Iraq" talking point, it's an absolute. It was stated Iraq had NO WMD, but they did. It was NOT destroyed as claimed.

It seems obvious to me that since they have made chemical WMD in the past, they could obviously make such WMD in the future.

Obviously, the inspections did not find the (approximately) 500 WMD munitions mentioned in the report. We could speculate on the reason(s). I seem to recall Saddam playing games with the inspections. Saddam bought time to hide them as best a possible seems a reasonable presumption.

Sorry, time for "There are no WMD in Iraq" liberals to eat crow. Salt/Pepper/Catsup with that?

well, not sure about the liberals but the "invading iraq was a bad idea, it has not made the world a a safer place, it has mired the us into an unwinnable expensive quagmire, severely degraded our military capability, created generations of new terrorists, costs far outweigh the benefits " realists like myself unfortunately continue to be proven correct.

and this i also know to be true: if a Democratic president had created this mess, you guys would be screaming right along with me.

You don't really know that. Like many liberals you're just making it up and pretending it's true.


Now 58,000 U.S. dead, mostly draftees, was a mess but there was very little "screaming" from the conservative side.


Like far too many people today living in a relatively safe society, you don't appreciate the need to get rid of the muderous thugs in the world for the good of all.

along with 42,000 iraqis. for the good of all, of course. way to go.

so this report justifies the FUD ,the faked intelligence reports
the trumped up media articles..etc

I dont think so...

but what we see now is 2 dictators that really have WMD
unheeding of any of the UN & US threats..
one canceling out the other over the deception that is the iraq conflict
but they still have the media still trying to sell it as the 'war of terror'
but I doubt any one is buying this now..

You can see that site is showing mostly terrorist victims killed and reporting them as "Civilians reported killed by military intervention in Iraq".

They're even logging police and army deaths under that heading - CIVILIANS. Liberal ethics again. You people can't support your position with honest facts so...

need some other sources to verify Bush's bloodbath?

What's with the sudden concern over Iraqi deaths now? Oh yeah, you're trying to blame them on Bush just like the terrorists do. Keep up the good work.

To think I used to be disgusted with the way you people sided with the commies. It seems pretty mild now compared to your new allies.






Wow, look at these biiiiig numbers; made up to get the parrots squawking.



LOL at posting the same story from different links; so fucking predictable.

you must learn to embrace the failures of your president, grasshopper; as his ardent aplogist, they are your failures, too :kiss:

Yeah, the failure to find WMD's, the failure to capture Saddam, the failure to create a democracy....the list just goes on and on.


As opposed to the liberal successes with their efforts to cut and run, indict Rove, win elections....who could hope to match that?
