WMD in Iraq - I am loath to rehash this argument, but

But obviously not too "loath."

A truly nonsensical post.

Yes, there were apparently worldwide intelligence failures with respect to WMD in Iraq. The Israelis got it wrong, the Germans got it wrong, the UN got it wrong, the French got it wrong, a lot of well-meaning people got it wrong.

So? What's your point?

That we were bamboozled, lied to, as you and others have said before? The evidence clearly suggests otherwise. But, hey, you are free to inhabit whatever fantasy world suits you.

Are you saying that Saddam's ownership of WMD was the only justification for the war? If you think so, you were simply not paying attention.

Which suggests to me that Republican politicians are not going to keep pointing to leftover deteriorated warheads from the first Gulf War as "evidence" that Saddam's WMD still posed any threat.

Well, how about that? You got something right today.

Congratulations.
