OT Warp. The military higher ups and scientists that have gotten out of Iraq have all said that they have these weapons. Saddam's brother-in-law defected and told them all about them and that they were hiding them. In 1998 the inspectors were getting stonewalled, they saw trucks leaving a suspected hiding place, they got pictures of large magnets used in making weapons grade uranium. They have them, they have used them. Of course we gave them some of them when the were fighting Iran, but that is another story.

I saw a special on PBS that went through the entire situation from right before the Gulf War until now. What I did get out of it was that Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz and the other Hawks were hell bent to get Saddam and were going to use any excuse to get him. They were angry that we didn't go all the way in the first war.

I have no problem with people protesting, but 99% of the protesters out there know not what they protest about. This "War for oil" thing is ridiculous. If they were really concerned for the Iraqi people they would support what we are doing in getting rid of Saddam. He has killed more people than out troops every will.
