re:Then you must have a link handy that shows those dual facilities still exist in Iraq.

If you have seed cultures stored away in vials (very easy) it is not hard at all to use any legitimate lab to create new chemical WMD. So any (well equipped) lab for making drugs is probably capable of producing chemical weapons.

They haven't found "any (well equipped) lab". That's why I asked for link.

re:That's not true......most of the world did not share that view. Most of the world did not know what the current status was.

Playing with semantics. If you don't know where something declared and unaccounted for has gone you must assume they still have it. The IRS does this all the time with my income.

Yes, that's why we sent in inspectors but that wasn't good enough for Bush. Why?

re:The sanctions worked in terms of restricting the development of Iraq's WMD......that's all that I was referring to or care about. The rest is superfluous to our exchange.

I would agree they worked while we had them in place, but at great cost to the average Iraqi -

Funny.....no one was worried about the Iraqis before the war.

and sooner than later they would play that up in world opinion to their advantage and the inspections and sanctions would have ended and everyone would just race to the next big story. Leaving Saddam to chase his dreams.

And those dreams were building resplendent palaces.......
