| UN : (forced to Admit Bush Correct) WMD shipped from Iraq before and during war | |
| 2004-06-11 | |
| The United Nations has determined that Saddam Hussein shipped weapons of mass destruction components as well as medium-range ballistic missiles before, during and after the U.S.-led war against Iraq in 2003. The UN Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission briefed the Security Council on new findings that could help trace the whereabouts of Saddam’s missile and WMD program. It can’t be. How could they destroy such a beautiful campaign as this - John Kerry The briefing contained satellite photographs that demonstrated the speed with which Saddam dismantled his missile and WMD sites before and during the war. Council members were shown photographs of a ballistic missile site outside Baghdad in May 2003, and then saw a satellite image of the same location in February 2004, in which facilities had disappeared. Speed at which they were dismantled. . .Hmmm you think families held hostage helped move things along. "It’s being exported," (UNMOVIC acting executive chairman) Perricos said after the briefing. "It’s being traded out. And there is a large variety of scrap metal from very new to very old, and slowly, it seems the country is depleted of metal." No metal in the country? You mean Saddam sent his goon around to even extract teeth? Much more : see link!

| #16 Jules: It's very simple. [Crinkle][Crinkle][Crinkle] OK, now that I have a tinfoil hat on... Since Saddam shipped them out, then they were not actually present when we attacked, so Bush lied, so... |

| #14 You either treat prisoners according to international treaties and convention or you treat them according to basic principles of fairness. Take your pick becuase you can't do both. If you choose international treaties then if torture is not explictly prohibited in defined circumstances then you are free to torture. This rather obvious piece of logic is of course beyond the understanding of the Left/Media. |

| #11 Yes, Bush is in favor of torture. No more pictures. But since the Italians thwarted a ciqada plot to blow up a PARIS subway this weekend, I guess Chirac has had an epiphany? We need to do what we need to do with terrorists who are not part of the former Iraqi army, which is who the Geneva Convention applies to in Abu Gherib - Not Sadrite or Fedayen troublemakers who take orders from God-knows-where. Bravo Italy for pulling the frog nougahs out of the fire, before one happened onb a Paris subway this weekend. Bravo Bush for all the "squeezed" info that prevented attacks on us! |

| #10 About a month ago Kerry(I served in Viet Nam)spelled out first Demo line-while some WMDs may be found,they weren't a threat to US that justified unilateral attack agaist wishes of our allies.The Demo talking heads turned that into STOCKPILES have to be found!If Un report gets any traction(doubtful-no pictures of rows of weapons that might convince honest doubters),expect expansion of Kerry(I served in Viet Nam)theme.The weapons weren't a threat,Saddam would never have used against US,bungling Bush Administration angered our "allies",mishandled war,isn't capable of transition,etc.,besides that's all in past,can't we just move on and talk about how bad economy is. |

| #9 Sonic, I was referring to the Geneva Contravention. It supercedes the Geneva Convention. |

| #8 Well, well, well, democrats--what have we to say now? Sadly I know your answer...first we'd have to find 1 weapon of mass destruction, then we'd have to find 2, then a dozen, then only ones that kill thousands, then someone would actually have to use them first before you would take a stand...on whatever free ground remained... |

| #7 Rafael... The Geneva convention also has specific provisions on WHO can be considered a POW... These provisions are there FOR A REASON... Some find it silly, but not having people disguised as civilians, among civilians, fighting, using said civilians as human shielding is important to some of us... And according to the Geneva Conventions doing so makes you not qualify for POW status... Read it sometime.. And the recent articles about the "memo" are just about that... Al Qeada fighting in violations of the Geneva Conventions... |

| #6 Yes Jennifer, the Geneva Contravention explicitly dictates how prisoners are to be treated, yet Bush can't read so he doesn't know about it...and...and...oh why bother you're just too funny!! |

| #5 I agree Sam. And Bush is in favor of torture too, and for not complying with the Geneva Contravention. |

| #4 This must be lies. Remember - Bush lied. Kerry's position will be - "I would not have handled it this way. It was sheer incompetence for Bush to lead people to believe there were no WMDs after leading them to believe there were WMDs. And now he has the audacity to say there really were WMDs, but amazingly he doesn't know where they are. This kind of incompetence is distressing. Certainly when I was in Vietnam, we knew this kind of incompetence was - well, not competent." |
