I don't understand your point. Do you mean that artillery isn't a WMD? The US had artillery launched nukes back in the 50's, so the fact that it's artillery neither proves nor disproves its intentions as WMD. Doesn't really mean anything.

I wouldn't say that. What if they made nerve gas 5 years ago and gave it to terrorists back then? Then they could have switched the facilities over to make pesticides. For all we know they could have produced WMD already and gave it away to people who they knew would use it.

I don't think we'll ever be able to say that there's no longer a danger of being attacked. As long as there are people that hate us, it's always a possibility.

Squischer: I think you have just spoken a truth that you yourself may not fully grasp.

yeah, I do that all the time. I can just imagine what it must be like for others. :D

It was time for some powerfull entity to take its tail from between its legs and do the right thing for those dreadfully oppressed people under his reign of terror, and to remove his terrorist training camps, and his mass accumulations of weapons designated for future terrorist activity. And that isnt the only place that needs cleaned up as well. Same goes for Afghanistan, the Taliban deserved what they got whether Osama was caught or not. IMHO
Kim needs to go too.

Yes it is well known they sponsor terrorist groups like.... and have used WMD like Saddam when they... That's right, there is no comparison,lol. BTW NK has signaled they are willing to have multilateral talks with the US, Iran has extended an olive branch, Russia is currently making evrery attempt to get their heads back up our a*s where it belongs, what happened to the rest of your anti-US bullsh*t posts?????? Nice to see how the facts contradict your bias though, my daily dose of humor.

They are on Bush's 'Axis of Evil' because they are nice

and have used WMD like Saddam when they...

LOL, are you trying to make a distinction between use and possession? Ever heard of the Iran-Iraq War? And guess who the US was helping? I'm sure you can figure that one out for yourself.

That's right, there is no comparison,lol. BTW NK has signaled they are willing to have multilateral talks with the US,

You mean NK's blackmail policy?

Iran has extended an olive branch, Russia is currently making evrery attempt to get their heads back up our a*s where it belongs,

Because that's where where every countries' head belongs.

what happened to the rest of your anti-US bullsh*t posts?????? Nice to see how the facts contradict your bias though, my daily dose of humor.

LOL, anti-US? You mean, the ones that point out the flaws in your arguments.

and people wonder why we're all pissed off whenever something is "found" or unconfirmed reports are made.

I would eat a crow, but Clinton says they had WMD so they've got to be there somewhere. What I really want to find though, was that immediate threat. We should have been in terrible shape 45 min into the war.
