Zonder and others like to say they oppose this war because they believe that GWB lied or mislead America about WMD as a basis for the invasion. Their focus is always on GWB's illegal war. It is never on Hussain's victims. Iraq is as much or more about VMD (Victims of Mass Destruction) than it is about WMD. Hussain ruthlessly used a variety of weapons - from torture to rope to guns to knives to brute force to airplanes to helicopters to tanks in slaughtering thousands and thousands of his people. Because they weren't "all" killed at the same instant doesn't mean they weren't victims of his style of WMD. Finally, GWB and the troops deserve immense credit for eliminating three of the gravest WMD threats (Hussain and his two sons).
