"Maybe I was right, maybe I was not right," he said. "They gave me this chance. I had the chance to fabricate something to topple the regime.
I wonder if Bush & Co. even attempted to verify these claims...
In a soon to be released book, R. Suskind alleges that he has documented the following facts about the Bush administrations war in Iraq.
1. That there was a contact through the British with an iraqi intelligence chief that there were no WMD in Iraq.
2. That the Bush administration ordered...
While digging through some old magazines I found a copy of 'Hard Evidence' dating from late 2002.
This is one of a number of interchangeable 'Alternative News/Conspriacy' publications that can be found on any newsstand in Australia because the publishers pay the distributors to carry them.
I...
I remember Oliver making a similar statement (BTW, where has Oliver gone?), but I think it deserves one thread of its own.
Since the US did not invade Iraq because of 911, not because of WMD, it is hard to give an explanation to the invasion.
I just found a possible explanation here:
Prior...
I was about to post this in the thread below (It is now!), as I often wonder if those split on the entire issue of Iraq, split on issues of WMD and Niger Uranium and such stuff, miss the question any person from 4-102 can ask. That is, with the absolutely monumental loss of life (600,000...
I've had an idea bouncing around in my head for the last few weeks that's been troubling me because I think it's one of those unthinkable ideas that my intellectual betters reject out of hand.
It started with the negotiations with Iran to give up its aspirations for a nuclear bomb. Iran says...
I'm sure one of our veteran debaters has a name for this type reasoning. I'll call it a false choice. Surrendering, IMHO implies giving up a fight. The purpose of the threats made to Saddam dealt totally with the issue of WMDs. Please correct me if I'm wrong. If the inspections had been...
Know how a guy with TB went flying cross borders?
Who was later identified as a personal injury attorney from Atlanta.
Well, aside from the obvious security mistakes there's now, supposedly, a conspiracy angle to it. The great illuminators over at LCF think so.
Good, read about it here, get...
I'm just curious as to where members of this forum stand on the war in Iraq, torture in Abu Ghraib, Chemical Weapons in Fallujah, Depleted Uranium everywhere, and the lies about WMD.
So does the average JREF support the war in Iraq or not?
I thought this was a pretty refreshing conspiracy theory:

Yes, I've heard all the "rationalizations" about why depleted uranium won't hurt you, but in the war of my generation, THEY also told us that Agent Orange wouldn't hurt you. A whole new generation of disabled veterans is probably just making up their symptoms, right?

I'm going to miss being able to ask the loosers "If the MIBs are so clever, why didn't they plant WMDs in Iraq to be found by the marines?".
Well since no stockpiles WMD's have been found in Iraq yet and what is more the human right abuses are now worse than they were under Saddam.
Mr Bush you have achieved absolutely nothing.
I've noticed a recent surge in "exorcist" type movies lately (both on television and the theater) and I'm wondering if the Catholic church is trying the old WMD trick on us?
I remember when the original book by William Peter Blatty was published there was an international interest in demonic...
I am curious to hear the thoughts of others on this subject.
It is apparent that the Clinton administration also thought Iraq had WMD. There is a well-known list of quotes from Clinton and members of his administration on this. Here is a link to some of them...
This is a must read article, it is an excellent piece of journalism, and covers the UNMOVIC, lead up to the war, the post war search for WMD, and torture as a standard part of interrogation by the US armed forces.
I recommend that everyone reads this article, in full. It is long, and detailed...
The premise of my logic is this.
The JREF million dollars is to be paid, not on exhaustive investigation of the claims of Sylvia, for example, but a simple test of easy questions. She doesn't have to get them all right, just a reasonable percentage. If she is right about being psychic, she...
In favor of the "he was wrong" theory, is the fact that the CIA and every foreign intelligence agency considered it the case that Iraq did, in fact, have WMD, and that Tenent told the president it was a "slam dunk" case.
In favor of the "he deliberately lied" theory, we have, well, not much...
That's what I am seeking here... proof. Explain to me how Pres. B. Clinton, the U.N. and Pres. G.W. Bush were all involved in this conspiracy to lie about WMD. Explain what was the U.N. doing in Iraq when supposedly looking for WMD?
Prove that Bush lied or change your story to the correct...
Weapons of Mass Destruction Found!
Iraq War Justified: WMDs Discovered in Underground Cache
By Brent Crockett and Robert “Ray” Spinch
BAGHDAD, IRAQ – Early Tuesday morning, US forces uncovered an expansive chemical weapons cache hidden thousands of feet beneath the Iraqi desert.
After more...
Alot of people have claimed that Bush went to war because he sincerely believed that Iraq had WMDs. I've been thinking about this lately, and now I think that he knew they didn't have WMDs around late February 2003. He figured out that Saddam didn't have WMDs after weapons inspectors failed to...
He's happy for them to come back to him with the findings in, say, after November.

I'll say, take all the time you want, boys.
Iraq and Weapons of Mass Destruction
The National Security Archive has just published an expanded collection of core documents relating to the Iraq WMD debate. This update, taken from U.S. and British sources that have become available in recent months, is part of the Archive's Saddam Hussein...

But don't worry, they'll resurect the claims next week and people...
