if Iraq did in fact destroy all WMD, as he stated he did, and as we are now beginning to acknowledge, how do we "justify" [read: "make legal"] our recent BoyzWithToyz party?" He doesn't plan to - mention of it will be out of sight due to the "co-operation" of the media, and the rest of the world knew there was no justification for the attacks anyhow. In

ANd don't forget that whole loadacrap about their WMDs being destroyed "hours before the arrival of UN inspectors". Guess they took all that sarin gas and flushed it down the toilet, huh.... The intel was creatively edited at best. Given the way the US treats countries that *do* have WMD (such as N Korea) the very fact that the attack went ahead is probably all the evidence you need that the US didn't expect saddam to have a usable defensive force, never mind a WMD or three.
In the end I think it's clear that they really didn't feel they needed to work too hard to create credible lies. And it looks like they don't need to....
