I thought Bush lied about Iraq's nuclear ambitions?

Why, there were no wmd there, right Libbies?

Just goes to show Joe Wilson to be the liar that he is.

Bush will go down as one of the greatest Presidents ever.

Thank you GWB for keeping us safe.

I'll wait patiently for the Bush bashers to show up and debunk the story.

Lets see.... North Korea developed, built and detonated nuclear bombs...

Iran is working on the same thing....

Iraq had Yellowcake.

Yup. I see why he chose to attack Iraq now.


Now let's turn to your little article...

"Israeli warplanes bombed a reactor project at the site in 1981. Later, U.N. inspectors documented and safeguarded the yellowcake, which had been stored in aging drums and containers since before the 1991 Gulf War. There was no evidence of any yellowcake dating from after 1991, the official said."


Yup, looks like Saddam was really pursuing a nuclear program in earnst.


Thank you GWB for making some of us think we are safe.


Keep drinking the Kool Aid Bryan...

Feel free to put your life in the hands of the UN.

I prefer to err on the side of safety.

Yellowcake is super easy to convert into 'dirty' bombs. You don't need nukes to do the damage. We'll see dirty bombs here in the US within 5 years.

Yup, I'm drinking the koolaid. Tastes good too.


To answer your post, you admit Saddam had yellowcake yet you refuse to believe Saddam was trying to buy more. Is that your position?

 

[Joeychgo]

Why would he buy more if he hadnt used what he had stockpiled for over a decade?

Even if he was... Clearly Iran and North Korea were a closer nuke threat. Why invade Iraq?

Further - This yellowcake was known and "U.N. inspectors documented and safeguarded the yellowcake" -- so you wanna tell me THAT is why we went into Iraq?

Where is all the WMD? The mobile bacterial and chemical warfare trucks are where exactly?

How about this: Bush admits there were no WMDs in IRAQ

Because the UN had seized what Saddam had.

To get rid of a tyrant and gain a foothold in the Middle East on which to secure the future flow of oil and also to provide better logistics to deal with Iran.

You can look (if you are honest with yourself) at all the UN violations Saddam had wiped his mose at.

Well documented that they are in Syria. There were convoys headed in that direction weeks before the war started.

How about this: Bush admits there were no WMDs in IRAQ

I would to. Just to get the naysayers off your back. Just say 'you're right' even when you have other information that would disprove it. I'd do it too.

"There were convoys headed in that direction weeks before the war started."

Sure - that makes sense. War is coming, so hide your weapons somewhere else instead of using them.

"To get rid of a tyrant and gain a foothold in the Middle East on which to secure the future flow of oil and also to provide better logistics to deal with Iran."

None of which were our stated reasons for going to war. So if this was his actual intent, he did lie to the american public and the world.
