Re: [OT] Another heated discussion about the Iraq siutation, war and politics.
Deccan,
That was not the part of the quotation I was referring too. Nobody in his right mind would deny those crimes. Problem is they happened before Gulf war 1 and any UN sanctions against Iraq, and is therefore irrelevant as an excuse for GWB for Gulf war 2. However, they would have made an excellent excuse for Bush sr. to have done the job properly the first time.
My problem with the quotation is that it implies that Iraq built new WMDs and supported terror against the USA between GW1 and GW2 (Although I conceede that it is written in vague language and don’t include any actual dates)
It is this: “ .. built weapons of mass destruction.... and refused to account for them when confronted by the world” that needs proof. Proof of WMDs (and ties to 9.11) please.
