Denial....its not just a river in Egypt...

You got that right.

Any scientist who would have talked and led them to whatever happened to Saddam's alleged WMDs (a)would have gotten a big reward; (b) would have gotten asylum; (c) would have been transported to the US; and (d) if he/she wanted, they would have gotten a new identity anywhere in the world they chose. And would have been guaranteed anonymity, if at all possible.

It would have been impossible to keep that sort of thing a secret. Too many people had to have known about it, if it existed, and known how/when/where it was disposed of, buried. Do you really think that the people interrogating the scientists were stupid? Do you think that they didn't send their best interrogators to question these people, ferret out any lies or inconsistencies in their stories and piece together the truth? Or that Saddam just killed anyone who knew, or sent them all to Syria without telling the any of the scientists or military people now in the custody of the US?

loop back to the first sentence....
