Clinton's policy of containing Saddam worked to complete perfection. Not in hindsight, mind you, but in President Clinton's very competent foresight. He successfully denied Saddam of WMD though a combination of enforcing no-fly zones, imposing sanctions on Iraq, sending in weapons inspectors, launching surgical strikes when necessary, and seeking cooperation among the nations of the world.
When bush invaded Iraq looking for WMD, he found that President Clinton had already gotten rid of them all.
We all know President Clinton suspected Saddam of possessing WMD. There are many quotes from him and other Democratic leaders attesting to it. That's why he pursued a policy of containment. He believed it would neutralize Saddam as a threat. If you think his policy didn't work, then answer me this: why were no WMDs found in Iraq?
Before some clever little con responds by pasting quotes from Democrats saying Saddam had WMDs, the question I ask is: why were no WMDs found in Iraq?
