They're the same whack jobs that believed W (and President Cheney and Rove) when he told them initially! They all have to save face somehow. Better to keep your delusions intact than to admit you're nuts!

Don't believe everything you hear...

I am a personal victim of that crisis.. I cannot work legally, and I'm held hostage by my own government for having access to retarded information.

I cannot draw unemployment, no welfare, nothing.. I can't do anything. I'm a disabled vet of the Marines, and yet they are handing out stuff to illegals...a priority they have set over the countries own people...

There is such thing called a media. If you've followed the immigration stances, you can clearly see, the media says nothing siding with the American people..

The only news to let out about how the American people feel about immigration, are independent news firms.

Did the New York Times or CNN cover the story on how a buncha highschool students, supported by school administrators flipped the American flag and flew it under the Mexican flag?

He*ll no! Why does the media do this? They are owned by the government. The government can pick and choose what is announced and what is censored.

Think about this, the immigration issue is the perfect example. The government and big companies will benefit from the presence of illegals-- the average lower class citizen will be hurting even more-- paying more taxes and having their kids suffer yet, through more isolationist practices...

The government hasn't mentioned anything about illegals... instead, they try to hide it by focusing on the Isreal/ Hezbolleh outburst. On top of this, Congress can't seem to nail the solution... So, meanwhile, while the current admin hides this from the public-- fearing a total backlash from both Liberals and Conservatives-- the individual states are finally cracking down on the sitatuation at hand... Because all in all, they DO know how important illegal immigration reflects on the American people.

Same thing with WMD in Iraq.. if the media were to express this --what was found, don't you think that would effect just a bit of national security?

Along with that point, look at it this way. If they annonced the findings of WMD in Iraq, the thousands of terrorist organizations would flee to Iraq in search of them.. I mean if one was found, there must be more! Considerably!

On top of this, U.S. ground troops would have yet another side to battle while trying to fish out the current problem.

Iran has also had a tumultuous relationship with their neighbor Iraq. The fact that WMD were to be found and announced would not only threaten Iran, but inturn, would completely raid Iraq, in fear of a future strike-- considering they have yet, "supposedly" to have enriched their uranium.

With this being said, any type of attack could simultaneously endanger our troops once again-- furthermore, intercepting the admins current administration, causing yet, another force to resist...Although this time, the entire Middle East is cought up in what may lay out, a proficient NBC war... with the U.S. cought up right in the dead center of it.

How would the American people react to that? They would blow up-- National security would decrease to an all time low, and an internal riot within the United States-- which would there entail a decreased moral for troops overseas.

I'm not saying all this is true, as of me disclosing anything. I personally don't have access to classified info, I never signed a waiver. Unfortunately, I just got cought up in an event that led to this type of theory.. Favored by most military intel.

Do you actually feel politicians have not lied? All they do is lie. Just because some politicians say something, doesn't mean it's true. As I have learned considerably.

Moreover, the media doesn't cover the entire story. And more than likely, exagerates the details, making mole hills into mountains.

Tell me this, what's better, The safety and security of National Security itself, or the President's reputation?

The world already criticizes us for everything we do... what's another insult going to do?

Go figure...

Regarding the failure-to-date to find WMD in Iraq, former CIA director under President Bill Clinton R. James Woolsey had this to say in a January 30, 2004 interview with Margaret Warner on PBS' Jim Lehrer's News Hour:

".... Margaret, there is one point we need to be clear on. There may be some aspects of this in which they were not wrong because the stockpiles people were talking about could be quite small in absolute terms. Saddam admitted to making 8,500 liters of anthrax. That's 8.5 tons. That's about a garage full of a suburban garage, and if that's reduced to powder, that's four suitcases. How many suitcases full of cocaine or how many garages of marijuana there may be in California, which is the size of Iraq, that the authorities don't know about, heck, in Mendocino County alone."

Not stated terribly clearly, I know, but I'm still wondering if the Sunni bad guys don't, in fact, have some WMDs that they're gonna unleash once the Shiites get serious with them (i.e., after we're gone).

At least 500 large chemical and biological artillery shells have been found in Iraq since we went into Baghdad, also a dozen large drums of chemical warfare materials. We have seen photos of this material, published even by liberal newspapers.
More has undoubtedly been smuggled into Syria.

About 450,000 TONS of high explosives (enough to destroy a MILLION Oklahoma City Murraugh federal buildings) were found and impounded in Iraq. TV and news phots pictured insurgents stealing some of this out of ammo dumps by the truckload. It is being used right now as improvised explosive devices to kill and maim our soldiers, Iraqi militia and citizens. Don't YOU see all this as WMD's? I do.

They might only have the leftover WMDs that the U.S. gave them back when Saddam was our buddy (why do you think everybody was so damn sure there were going to be WMDs?). In hindsight, it may have been shrewd for Bush Sr. (as former head of CIA and VP) to prop up Saddam to contain Iran.

Could have been a clerical error. Maybe they typed in Iraq as having WMD instead of Iran, where the real threat exists.

I don't think its so crazy at all considering that just next door in Iran they very likely DO IN FACT have not only nukes but missiles to deliver them with.

As the President had said, if we wait for positive proof, that proof may be manifest in a mushroom cloud over an American city or cities.

I've seen people on here who STILL believe that Fox news is gospel and say that Iraq had WMD's!!!! Even after their precious president has admitted intelligence was wrong.

they had a few, but most were destroyed in 1992. the rest were buried under the desert sand and forgotten about.

even if they did, they posed no threat to the usa in 2003.

They did have them. Not in large stock piles or anything but they did. One weapon can kill a lot of people. That is why they are called weapons of MASS destruction. Because one can cause a lot of damage. Stop being so stupid and open your eyes and mind a little bit.
