Karen,

I'm not aware of any serious discovery of wmd in Iraq since the invasion. If you've got a link to some article about such, I'd be happy to read it. Certainly, if there have been anomolous discoveries, there have been no serious ones. Or else the Bush folk would have made much ado about it.

The claim that there were sufficient supplies of wmd in Iraq to warrant an invasion is simply not a credible claim now. The Bush folk have even dropped that argument; moving onto others.

You note the 5,000 Saddam killed in one town; that's a rather distant past. There's no doubt he had wmd then. The argument is about whether he had supplies prior to the 03 invasion.

Your reference to the article about a Al Q cell in the US before 9-11, including references to Atta is correct. But that does not involve wmd. Just another illustration that the right and left hands were not talking to one another.

As for whether it's fixed now, the evidence is thin that it has been done. We won't know until something happens.
