Reply #52: What do you mean? There were intelligence reports out there. [View All]

There was the fact that Iraq had been suffering under sanctions for how friggin long may I ask? And there was the fact that that pointy earred lying sack of shit told blatant lies like 'Saddam wasn't allowing the inspectors to do their jobs'.

And then there was the OSP that Sy Hersch and everybody and their frigging mothers knew were cooking the books and they said so.

And then there was Joe Wilson who blew the whistle on the Niger scam.

And then there were that warnings from the CIA that the info from Dougie and the boys was iffy. And there were the reports from the UN about the lack of nuclear capabilities that Iraq had and that there was no discernable research in that area. And the IAEC (Int'l Atomic Energy Commission that had been monitoring Iraq.

And there was enough information for us here to feel comfortable and correct in our position that they were lying their asses off.

What the fuck ever.
