Question

Answer 1

yes they have found at least 500 chemical weapons. artillery rounds capable of delivering a chemical or biological explosive containing nerve and mustard gas

Answer 2

Firstly, Newsmax is run by right wing psychos.
Don't you think that George Bush would have been jumping for joy if WMD's had really been found.
Also, we have spy satelites that can see an ant poop in your backyard...
But couldn't see missiles being moved.

Doesn't make any sense.

And on the recent revelations of many ancient weapons.
We didn't attack Iraq because they had useless weapons that, at best, would give you a skin rash.

Mobile Weapons Labs
500 Tons of Anthrax
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
Nuclear Materiels

Answer 3

Old news story. Never substantiated. Why has Bush never publicly said anything about this if it's true?

Because it is not.

However, there were WMD's found by the UN.

They were mid-range al-Samoud missiles dismantled in front of the world a few months before we invaded.

Genius. Claim that the UN works for Iraq and France, and all the while it is disarming Iraq. John Bolton must be laughing his heart out.

Answer 4

Quit beleving all the Liberal crap that goes on. These soldiers aren't dying from water guns. If they hide the caches of bombs I'm quite sure there is nerve agents there unless you can explain the 1000s of Kurds that died. Why didn't they use Nukes cause they didn't have the capability to launch yet. The outcry from the world would also prevent it.

Answer 5

I remember after they were in country and looking for the weapons, I saw a report of one of the rivers, either the Tigris or Euphrates having high levels of a toxin of that used in chemical weapons.

Answer 6

no there werent any weapons of mass destruction. think about it, they supposedly knocked down the trade centers, and crashed into the pentagon.(i think bush did it, or set it up) those acts alone shown, they meant business. now if they had W.M.D'S why wouldnt they have used them? considering, america was in a panic stricken stupor. the government basically shut down due to lack of communication immediatly after 9/11. our officials were dazed! down for the count! wouldnt it have made sense, to handle it all in one fell swoop, insead of waiting til we got our legs back? yes it does. my point
is they couldnt possibly have had W.M.D'S. and if they did, they werent ready to be used. or they had them on a small level. what does it matter if they did have them? we got them. every body else has them. we got them on an exponential level. america doesnt want their supposed enemies to have W.M.D'S. america doesnt want anyone to be equal on the playing field. america wants to be the only nation to have access to the button. america has crazy people, just like they do. america commits terrorist acts. they have run up in different countries, assinate whoever, and replace them with some new pawn...................dont let america fool you into thinking they dont have blood on their hands. they are just as bad as the terrorists. its just well hidden.

Answer 7

I dont think so . If they wanted to get rid of sadam why wouldnt they send special forces to get rid of him . why would u send army to find weapon of mass destruction . i think there is something else planned . war against china or russia .
the same with osama . why dont u hire best killers to track him down . i guess by this time they should have sattelites which can track anyone by their voice . i think it is all bulshit . something really serious will happen soon.

Answer 8

A story from republican sources via republican news,exactly like the propaganda before the war.

It's no coincidence that weapons inspectors haven't been allowed back into Iraq - there are no WMD!

Answer 9

Ask all the truck drivers in the long caravans that left Iraq into Syria just prior to our invasion.

Answer 10

This is not new, but it seems to be something nobody wants to talk about, including the Bush administration. I guess they feel that the less we know the better.

Answer 11

Yes but they were not meant for the US they were far to old and decaying to make any true impact. In fact I would say they were probably forgotten about.
