Thanks Chinu. In general I support your position, but when one poster attacks another, it upsets me.

We have had some recent examples. Obviously, we have found NO WMD in Iraq. But the extremists get upset at that simple statement ... They scream: "What about the handful of old shells from the 1980s with traces of Sarin?"

Obviously no rational or reasonable person would consider those WMD. "We have found NO WMD in Iraq" is an accurate description of events and requires no caveat.

Another example: There was NO evidence of ties between Iraq and al Qaeda. They were not allies, and Bush's prior claims are false. But once again the extremists get upset ... "What about the casual contacts described in the report?" they scream. Once again, no rational or reasonable person would consider those contacts "ties" nor would those contacts (some with Osama trying to take out Saddam) make them "allies". That is absurd.

Once again, I generally support your position. And I will continue to write the truth without caveats:

We have found NO WMD in Iraq.

There is no evidence of ties between Iraq and al Qaeda.

Thanks for the thread!
