Weapons of Mass Nonexistance

Are we any closer to finding any yet? What about those naughty trucks that the Yanks found a while back - dead ends?

About time George and Tony admitted they just used it as a pretext.

What with all the nasties the Iraqis are throwing at the Yanks, you can be sure they'd include WMDs if there were any handy

moggie, stop being such a tree huggin hippie.
who cares about WMDs?
we are in Iraq for the long run, so stop whining about the past, WMDs, defense cuts or what ever it is that you happen not to like at the moment, and hop aboard for the big to victory and medals.

Well, LHs specialist, maybe I don't like being lied to by a war mongering cretin and his bum licking pal!

If we were going into Iraq to remove Saddam then we should have been honest about it, not hiding behind lies.

"we know where they are stored", "45 minutes to deployment", "he will use them", "we will find them (after we plant them)".

Let's be honest George did it to a ) look big and b ) deflect attention from the bad economy. Tony just did it to look big!

In Iraq - yes, got a plan or an idea how to make it work - no!

come, come chaps!

we did it because we can! wmd my arse. at least by killing thousands of rag heads at source, theres a few less illegal immigrants in this green and pleasant land.

phoneytoney and george dubbya arent all that bad, at least they keep us in a job and me in the finest stella artois my pounds (not euros) can buy.

more wars please = quicker promotion, bulled boots and several wakes. lifes not all that bad, surely.

Angel Poker and other games of chance...

I'll see your 2 million megatons and raise you 4... Many a game of poker is won with an Ace high

The whole point of MAD and WMDs is bluff. The ultimate bluff is not to actually have any and non-existing WMDs work just as well as the solid kind.

My goodness, we'll have folks believing the North Koreans can vapourize the USA next.

The Iraqis managed to hide an entire Squadron of fighters by burying them in the desert, I can't see any reason why they wouldn't have done the same with all the WMDs.

Now, if only the CIA can find that lap-top with all the grid references....
