Ted Re.. However, at the time of the Gulf War around ten years ago, a similar argument was made.....we were told that Saddam was on the verge of getting nukes. Why, then, didn't Bush Sr. take him outwhen he had the chance and no bs.....he definitely had the chance? Was he an example of a weak Conservative?<

That statement makes absolutly no sense, as dismanteling Saddams nuclear program was part of the peace treaty ending the war. Subsequently Saddams existing nuclear program was dismantled under UN auspices. However, it would be quite possible, in fact there are a lot of signs, Saddam is trying to rebuild his nuclear program.


Repeatedly in the news, it's been said that Saddam's nuke program is at the same stage it was 11 years ago. That there has not been any material difference. However, there has been tons of speculation by the administration that he is getting ready to make nukes and missiles with nukes. That's what the administration is alleging the metal tubes that were found are for. That was the same speculation 11 years ago......Saddam has never had actual nukes.
