You'd think that if WMDs were really found in Iraq, the Bush Admin. would trumpet the news from the parapets, it /was/ after all their primary justification for invading a soverign country. This has not happened. I wonder why.

I read the link. Sounds like a lot of hype. So big deal "1.77 metric tons of uranium" was found.. they did have nuclear power reactors to produce electricity. They weren't living in caves you know. As for the rest of the list, they sound pretty mundane. "17 chemical warheads" ... 17?! wtf. That's not much. The US has far, far more WMD action than that. Far.

The whole WMD thing assumed that they had ACTIVE weapons, and they were aiming them at the US - remember? Or at least Israel. ..not just parts sitting around that could be assembled. Don't forget UN inspectors were traipsing around the country; not like Saddam could have actually started anything serious with a bunch of bean-counters counting his beans.

For the record, I don't watch CNN (central news nausea). But no other reputable news outlet is mentioning this information. At least not at this point.
