Imagine if Saddam DID have WMD's...
They would all be in terrorist hands by now. Because Rummy wouldn't have enough troops or motivation to guard them.

Nuclear sites and stockpiles of high-yeild explosives. Looted with no protection from the US, despite being warned about this.

The oil wells and oil ministry, they'd be safe!

I guess the military victory was just too successful, eh, Bush? A catastrophic success!

2. Well, we know he DID at one time and we don't know where they went
since the UN never got the proof of their destruction. :scared:

we gave them to him. common sense says he used them up or destroyed them. he didn't give them to fundamental muslims whom he hated.

4. Actually, yeah they did.
The UN was shown where the weapons were destroyed and they decided, yeah, that counts for all of it. Before the war, of course.
