Its interesting. I read somewhere that rummy was against the war too and from the beginning, fearing just this. So we got a conventional war we could only win with massive troop deployemnnt that was fought instead by the new army headed by Rummy who knew from the beginning we couldnt win it in this manner. You cant make this stuff up but they try.

Then you think Saddam should be alive, ruling Iraq, with all sanctions lifted?

Re, WMD's, you're aware that the same folks who failed to find stockpiles also claimed Saddam retained his WMD ambitions and intentions and intended to rebuild his WMD's following the lifting of sanctions.

Saddam rid Iraq of UN inspectors in 1998. At which time lots of stuff left or unaccounted for. So how do you reckon the UN inspectors did anything?

If Hussein Kamel hadn't defected in 1995, the UN would have given Saddam a clean bill of health with his biological weapons program intact! Hussein Kamel spilled the beans on that one.

But sure, UN inspectors are real effective in the "reality based community." Or should that be the "unreality based community?"
