" Well, we know the French used WMDs on the Germans and vice-versa. Heck, we used them too.We know they had intentions to be a world military power. "We know that Saddam played cat and mouse with inspectors and couldn't or wouldn't give and account of his operations. "No military force is very good at keeping records because it's rare to find accountants who are also warriors . People will be dealing with US WMDs for at least the next 100 years.Was he an immediate threat to the USA? Not in my opinion. Would he eventually be able to develop the weapons to make his threats real? I think so ."Were the Sanctions working?

"Was Saddam our enemy? How do you feel about targeting innocents to cause harm to come to your enemy? Isn't that one of our definitions of terrorism?
