I still think Saddam trucked the incriminating stuff off to Syria before the war. We certainly gave him long enough to do it, and it would have been entirely in character.

Do you believe the war with Iraq was based only on WMD ?

WOT is a silly little sideshow,

You really think so? It seems the jihadis are a very determined bunch... and that they won't give up until they raise the muslim consciousness of Muslims all over the world. Even if they'll have to build a brand new Muslim Gulag to do so. Would have to agree -- in some ways such visionary professional revolutionaries are no better than cancer.... ;)

Clearly you seem unable to get my point. The Joint Resolution makes a totally self contained justification for the US action. WMD is not the major reason to act. WMD is the major reason to act with extreme caution. WMD could kill tens of thousands of soldiers and have who know how many long term effects.

America has zero experience in fighting in chemical or biological environment during active combat. It's all theory.

With no WMD, we did not even need the force size used. That's why it was only three weeks. But the reasons all listed in the joint resolution are still 100% valid.

Where is your beef????
