Generally, the WMD's discussed in 2003 were Chemical and Biological WMDs. The false Iraq "nuke" claim is an entirely seperate issue.
Will anyone address the false unranium purchase and enrichment claims the Bush admin made concerning Iraq?

There is nothing to discuss. There was plenty of legitamate evidence for WMD in Iraq before 2003. And collition forces have found over 500 of them since then all over Iraq.
Even Bill Clinton expressed fear of their use on Saddams neighbors.
So, uranium purchase ? as false report? Who cares now?
No Iraqi enemy...no Saddam...no more WMDs aimed at anyone!
=irrelevant question.

Actually its pretty well confirmed that Iraq did go to Africa to buy yellowcake. And the claims of enrichment were originally made in the 90s when Clinton was President. And the term WMD means Weapons of Mass Destruction, which include chemical, biological and atomic weapons.

If Iran had nothing to hide (if they would like to use the nuclear energy for peaceful purposes), why would they need so much secrecy about the program? They could simply open it to international atomic agency inspection and the whole debate about building a nuclear weapon would go away.
After all, USA did a huge favor to them by getting rid of Saddam. Iranian government should stop looking for external enemies and try to improve conditions for their own citizens instead of wasting money on nuclear weapons program.

See Joe Wilson & Valerie Plame for that one, bud. And, of course, other Dems if those two aren't enough for ya.

I think we would be better served to be concerned with the present and future, rather than beat the past to death. These questions have been asked over and over again. Do you just keep asking until you get an answer you like or what?

i wonder if there is a statute of limitation on pressing false information as a prelude for war?

Iraq did try to purchase yellowcake from Niger, as reported by that Ambassador guy.
