That hindsight is always 20-20. Hingsight! Iraq was deploying biological and chemical weapons in the 80's and it took till last year [nearly two decades] to think about controlling biological materials in the US. You have one amazing definition of hindsight. Actually, isn't the real truth that we didn't really care who Sadam was throwing biological and chemical weapons at as long as it wasn't us. When we finally did get hit with anthrax, there were some immediate indications. All the addressed targets were either Democrats or mainstream media; the anthrax came out of a batch that originated in the US and it used a weaponizing technique developed in the US [and not used by Iraq]. So "we" made the obvious conclusion that Iraq was involved. Brilliant! Iraq has always had it in for liberals? If you're offended at the thought that "we didn't care", could you tell me what day the memorial service is for the victims in Iraq or for the victims of Sarin in Tokyo? jttmab
