Where are the Weapons of Mass Destruction?

Why can't our troops use them against the Taliban Militia and the insurgents in Iraq?

LMAO. Yeah next time Bush asks the senate for more money for another war they should just send a reply saying he can use the WMD he found in Iraq, see what his stupid face thinks about that, lol.

The WMD found in Iraq (so far) consist of some old artillery shells which contained mustard gas and Sarin. Use of such WMD is prohibited by international convention, and even if licit, would not be of much use against militias and insurgents, who like to hide among innocent civilians. It has been reported that the bulk of the Iraqi WMD (amounting to several thousand tons of material) were moved to Syria in June 2002. These may include biological devices and nuclear equipment, but almost certainly not operational nuclear devices. For the reason given above, the use of any such weapons is contraindicated.

first of all...you would need WMD in Iraq in order to use them from Iraq....but we haven't found any. Plus there hasn't been any since the early 1990s. all of the information that the CIA received pre-war of Iraq, was from Iraqi exiles who were looking for $. so they told the CIA what they wanted to hear and got their $. but there wasn't any WMD to begin with and we basically started a war for nothing. Colin Powell gave up his job mainly because when he gave the UN his presentation on the war, he said that there were mobile biochemical units in Iraq and lots of WMDs. but that was wrong and he faced major humiliation for it. So....WMDs in Iraq are a lost cause, but, we are coming up with REAL evidence that Iran definitely has some or are very close to making them. plus we can partially thank our selves for that. in a recent CIA mission, we sent very high Iran officials blueprints for a nuclear missile, but we put flaws in it to kinda gage where Iran was with their WMD program. but they have Russian scientist that came from the Soviet nuclear program from when the Soviet was disbanded. we also have Russian nuclear scientists from the Soviet. Plus before we handed them over, we didn't know that they had a set of blueprints for a different nuclear bomb from the black market that they could easily use to compare and contrast to find the flaws. we don't know if they figured out the flaws yet, but unfortunately, we may find out very soon. hopefully i helped you out a little bit and set you back on track.

The reason they can't use them is because there never were any to begin with. Even if there were, they couldn't use them because they would be evidence that needed to be verified before it could be destroyed. We have far better weaponry than they ever did and it would be pointless to use theirs. If I were you, I wouldn't trust ANYTHING the Bush administration says, the war was started to gain control over the Middle East to boost the American economy and finish daddy Bush's business

Because our policy is in retaliation and of like kind. If we have chemicles used on our troops we could very well use ours. And the stuff we got makes what they have look like they are flinging water ballons at us on a playground. Why would we want to use a lesser weapon?

What a neat twist that would be...

However evil the ruler may be I would never condone the use of WMD's less a direct threat to the US population.
