Thomas -

I've been pursuing a policy of not responding to you, but I just had to this time.

You posted a link to the report of the Key Findings of the Iraq Survey Group, as one of three links following the words "I don't feel betrayed...".

I've read that report. It says, in certain terms, that they could find no evidence to support the claim Saddam had WMD stockpiles or the ability to create WMDs.

In particular, the trailers that you mocked others for believing were designed for producing hydrogen, are said - well let's just read what the report says about them:

"ISG thoroughly examined two trailers captured in 2003, suspected of being mobile BW agent production units, and investigated the associated evidence. ISG judges that its Iraqi makers almost certainly designed and built the equipment exclusively for the generation of hydrogen. It is impractical to use the equipment for the production and weaponization of BW agent. ISG judges that it cannot therefore be part of any BW program."

The report in now way supports your view. Thus, I am at a loss as to why you would link to it.
