On Sept. 7, 2002, meeting with British Prime Minister Tony Blair at Camp David, Bush told reporters: "I would remind you that when the inspectors first went into Iraq and were denied, finally denied access, a report came out of the Atomic -- the IAEA -- that they were six months away from developing a weapon. I don't know what more evidence we need." The IAEA did issue a report in 1998, around the time weapons inspectors were denied access to Iraq for the final time, but the report made no such assertion. It declared: "Based on all credible information to date, the IAEA has found no indication of Iraq having achieved its program goal of producing nuclear weapons or of Iraq having retained a physical capability for the production of weapon-useable nuclear material or having clandestinely obtained such material." Bush lied At the same meeting Bush also cited an IAEA "report" declaring that satellite photography revealed the Iraqis had undertaken new construction at several nuclear-related sites. The IAEA said no such report existed.

delbie, you would not know a piece of direct evidence or danger if it were a soggy cow pie and splattered in you face. Did Iraq under Sadam Hussein present a clear and present danger? Yes is did. Does Iraq freed not present that danger? Yes there is no danger. Does Iraq also provide the US with a major tactical situation inprovment in fighting terrorists? Yes it does. Syria, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan were a continuous broad band of delbie, hate America minded muslim whacko terrorists. The enemy has been divided and time will conquer. You may consider your desire to have Saddam back in power noble, reasonable people consider it idiotic.
