Iktomi -

It's true.

One thing that confuses me is how the "WMDs were sent to Syria" story keeps being repeated as a fact.

If it is true that Saddam had massive amounts of viable WMDs that were sent to Syria just before the war, then I have three questions. There are other questions, as well, but these are the main ones:

1) If having those weapons in the hands of a hostile regime was a critical threat to our national security when they were in Iraq, then why hasn't the Bush Administration done anything about these massive stockpiles of WMDs now that they're in Syria?

2) Why haven't these alleged weapons made their way into the hands of terrorists yet? Why weren't they given to Hezbollah when the Israelis invaded Lebanon?

3) Why is it that George Tenet to this very day says the CIA got it wrong about the WMDs?
