Woo, an opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal. It may be possible
that Saddam wanted nuclear weapons. A lot of sorry little despots all
around the world want them. But he didn't have anything close to a
nuclear capability.

"Of all the booby traps left behind by the Clinton administration, none
is more dangerous--or more urgent--than the situation in Iraq. Over the
last year, Mr. Clinton and his team quietly avoided dealing with, or
calling attention to, the almost complete unraveling of a decade's efforts
to isolate the regime of Saddam Hussein and prevent it from rebuilding its
weapons of mass destruction."

Saddam had nothing, US troops scoured the country intensively for months
and finally gave up. He was going nowhere. He was contained. The whole
thing was a lie, and George Bush fed it to us.

Christopher Hitchens, hehe, another bloviating opinion piece. He says
some guy went to Niger. But didn't get any uranium. Unlike we were led
to believe.

Obviously the Intelligence Committees got snookered, eh?

"Newly released documents confirm that a Pentagon unit knowingly cooked
up intelligence claiming a direct link between Iraq and al-Qaeda in order
to win support for a preemptive strike against the country."

GW Bush is the Commander in Chief, he controls the Pentagon. Cheney
established a task force at the Pentagon to cook the intelligence reports.

I don't know where you stand on this issue but those two articles are in
opposition to each other. Did you read them?
