Then I guess they were right about Saddam Hussein having WMD's and the left can quit bitching about the Iraqi War?

We know he had WMD's because we sold them to him whenever Bush Sr was head of the CIA

Saddam was a government plant to enrich the Bush family with oil, everyone knows that.

He did have WMDs (Chemical agents). Just look at what Iraqi forces did in the Iran-Iraq War and to the Kurds in the 90s. Was Iraq a mistake? Looking back most definitely but don't kid ourselves that Iraq had an active WMD arsenal.

It wasn't the CIA or other intelligence agencies that reported WMD as fact. IT was the NeoCons who ran foreign affairs under GWB who slanted the data and made the arguments for war.

I distinctly remember Bill Clinton and his administration warning us about Iraq's WMDs. It's on the record, just google and it's all out there.

The Bushies queered the intel. The actual evidence said no WMD.

Halabja chemical attack
quote:

The Halabja chemical attack (Kurdish: Kîmyabarana Helebce ??????????? ???????), also known as the Halabja Massacre or Bloody Friday,[1] was a massacre against the Kurdish people that took place on March 16, 1988, during the closing days of the Iran–Iraq War in the Kurdish city of Halabja in Southern Kurdistan. The attack was part of the Al-Anfal Campaign in northern Iraq, as well as part of the Iraqi attempt to repel the Iranian Operation Zafar 7. It took place 48 hours after the fall of the town to Iranian army

The attack killed between 3,200 and 5,000 people and injured 7,000 to 10,000 more, most of them civilians.[1][2] Thousands more died of complications, diseases, and birth defects in the years after the attack.[3] The incident, which has been officially defined by Supreme Iraqi Criminal Tribunal as a genocidal massacre against the Kurdish people in Iraq,[4] was and still remains the largest chemical weapons attack directed against a civilian-populated area in history.[5]

We all know this except for the left who still denies it to fit their narrative.

The mistake we made was that Iraq was ready for a Western style Democratic Republic government, which is incompatible with Islam.

Like the leftists warhawks that Obama has appointed to head the intelligence agencies for the past several years?

If war is so good, put on a uniform and strap up or do you expect others to fight when it's your turn like Tronald Dump. Also, after being into military for over 30 years, the intelligence community is not perfect, but they sure as hell know much more than the Russian-loving/Putin-hero worshipping President-elect that lost the popular vote by over 2 million votes...talk about a mandate. And, of course, he's smarter than all of them, LMAO.

I can't believe anyone still believes Iraq had WMDs. Even GW himself admits that they didn't.

What kind of fricking dream world is this?
