what is dishonest is to suggest that bush was talking about chemical weapons and not NUKES! ZERO nukes were found or it would have been plastered all over CNN... the US army kills more civilians than all terror organizations combined...zarqawi was in iraq bush was in the USA whats your point? yes US foreign policy is alquaidas BEST buddy with all its blunders and half truths and plain lies + all the bombs and war and sanctions + the imperialistic shakedowns...makes it real easy for people to hate you and real difficult for the moderates/democrats to support anything other than people who hate you... example: it was super obvious why you attacked iraq the whole world knew it was not about WMD...now you are doing it AGAIN with iran and its still the old WMD lie LOL...you did not even bother to change the excuse for invading...
Bush was talking about WMD, which include a large variety of weapons systems. Certainly not limited to nukes. But since you are interested in nukes, let's explore this one because it makes the case even stronger and validates my point: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/11/03/w...partner=homepage&pagewanted=print&oref=slogin So, saddam was a year away from making a nuke and the documents recovered were the same that were presented to the UN to make a case. Isn't that special? http://www.nysun.com/editorials/iraqs-yellowcake/81328/?print=5238245121 But what about the uranium found and shipped out of Iraq in 2004? Good question, glad you asked: http://archive.newsmax.com/archives/ic/2005/7/17/171214.shtml Incorrect. muslims are killing more in Iraq than all military services combined. Point about zarqawi has already been explained. He was running a terrorist training camp. When some of his men were captured by saddam, they were let free and then given information that Jordan was on to them. In other words, the silly notion that grim dishonestly offers to downplay that role, is just not true. This delusion serves as nothing more than a diversionary attempt to ignore the massive ties between al qaida and Iraq. They are documented. It corrects the dishonesty by some that there were none. Some WMD were found, as well as saddam's nuclear project, as sourced above. I'm sure saddam appreciates all his supporters trying to defend him, but even in his death, after murdering over a million people, some still try to shield him from his deeds.
Being popular is more important to some, than the truth. Low self-esteems can do strange things to people when they need the approval of the majority.
It is obvious that the administration was dishonest in their efforts to shore up support for a war with Iraq. It was obvious even before Scott McClellan published his book.
