So tell me again: We went in because ....... ? Results or lack of them will ultimately make this war successful or not. If the wmds are bekka valley, do you change your mind then. If there were never wmds do i change mine. Today is day one LL and this admin has to do better at pacification than it has so far. It is that simple. No need to panic yet. mike

Lazzzzz..have you seen the 30 planes that Suddam had buried??? There are several pictures if the planes that were found in Iraq recently. Tell me, if they could bury PLANES......in the SAME area that had been previously searched.......How much effort would it take to bury a few barrels of chemicals and/or bio weapons..........?????????????????????? If you had some to bury any place you wanted to in the entire state of CA, where would you bury them? Houses, mosques, tunnels, in the desert, in Lebannon or Syria, or where????????/

"There are no WMD. Face it." I'll be interested in your POV after David Kay's report in a couple of months. "There is no connection to al qaeda." That's debatable. What wasn't debatable were SH's ties to terrorist groups & the global war on terrorism. His financial support to known terrorist groups outside of Iraq, plus his harboring & training them inside Iraq are well documented. "So tell me again: We went in because ....... ?" FWIW, it wasn't because there were or were not WMD's, but because SH failed to comply with UN resolutions that, among other things, included turning over all WMD's & WMD programs to inspectors immediately for their complete destruction. For 12 long years, SH absolutely failed to comply. 9/11 brought an end to this BS game of hide & seek with the UN. It was also about SH's known ties to known terrorist groups as discussed above, perhaps including Al Qaeda. The global war on terrorism was never about Al Qaeda only. That is absolutely irrefutable. BTW, in February, Hans Blix ordered over 100 Al Samoud 2 missiles and machinery to produce missile motors because they exceed the 93-mile limit set by a U.N. resolutions at the end of the 1991 Gulf War. One example of numerous clear, irrefutable violations of 18 UN resolutions still occurring in 2003. Those two mobile WMD labs will be hard to spin into some harmless, yet ridiculously expensive mobile (fill in the blank) IMO. Iraq's centrifuge programme for it's nuclear program will need lots of spin as well. Etc., etc., etc. I wonder why it's so important to change the President's precisely stated reasons into something he never said & then act indignant as if the President was the one misleading everyone?
