One more question SFL: If Saddam had indeed destroyed his WMD, then why didn’t he have documentation (proof) and why didn’t he secretly let us know to avoid the impending invasion? He could have backchannelled it so Iran wouldn’t know. We would not tell Iran; we hated Iran at least as much as he did.
I’ll tell you why: Because Saddam had chem and bio WMD. He never destroyed them precisely because of the Iranian threat. It wouldn’t take more than a half-dozen semitrucks to move them to Syria. Easily done. And again, we have the Air Force General #2 man in Iraqi military, who says so. Just because the Leftists in the MSM chose to ignore his statements does not mean they are not true.
I think it is your side that is still grappling for answers. We know what happened.
#50…I saw that FFF link when I was searching, and passed over it.
I don’t source political foundations with ideological leanings…
Since you posted it, I looked them up.
Apparently they are a Libertarian organization. Anti-Tax, etc…
Not my cup of tea.
“You’ve shown no proof that RR was rsponsible for anything.”

Actually, what I’ve shown is that during the Ronald Reagan presidency, a cabinet level (Health and Human Services) federal agency GAVE BIOLOGICAL SAMPLES TO IRAQ which were used in its WMD programs in the late 1980′s.
Sooo…
If you think Reagan had no power or control over his own cabinet, then maybe I can see your point that Reagan had nothing to do with this.
LOL…
I mean, when has a President ever been responsible for actions taken by a cabinet level agency?
Right?
“why didn’t he secretly let us know to avoid the impending invasion?”

We’ve covered this already, Robert.
Rumor has it that he was convinced the US would not be stupid enough to invade Iraq.
“Rumor”? That’s it?
)
Again, we’ve covered this ground.
The FBI agent who worked with the captured Saddam, remember?
But hey, it’s only a Primary Source, right? What do they know?!
You are taking pieces here and there, out of context, and asserting a conclusion.
Oh, and SFL, are you willing to admit now that Pelosi and the Defeatocrats are/were WRONG about Iraq? That we are absolutely winning the second war (after winning the first one in less time and with less difficulty than the BHDS crowd predicted)? That the terrorists are having their asses handed to them? That HilLiary Klinton should be publicly humiliated and disgraced for her attack on Gen. Petraeus, who is a true American Patriot?
You got lots of admittin’ to do…
With American soldier deaths higher in 2007 than in any other year, I don’t think I or any Democrat will be quick to say we are “winning” in Iraq anytime soon.
Does anyone even know or agree on what “victory” in Iraq will look like?
Seems pretty subjective to me…
Is a US created shi’ite led Iraqi government, closely allied with Iranian millitant leadership, much of a victory for American/Western interests?
So you’re not aware of the change in tactics Gen. Petraeus initiated? And the results of that change? You REALLY need to access some better news sources!
Of course we all know what victory in Iraq looks like. It is a U.S.-friendly Iraq that is a permanent base for the U.S. military in the heart of the M.E. It is infiltrators killed at the border; it is an Al Qaeda in full retreat licking its wounds and having completely lost face, being revealed as the cowards they are able only to plant bombs and send suicide bombers in to kill soft targets. Not man enough to fight like real men because they know they lose every time they go up against the best.
Huahhh!!! That answer your question?

LOL…OK, big guy. You let me know WHEN that all happens.
Regarding permanent US bases in Iraq:
———————
Iraq will never allow the United States to have permanent military bases on its soil, the government’s national security adviser said.
“We need the United States in our war against terrorism, we need them to guard our border sometimes, we need them for economic support and we need them for diplomatic and political support,”Mowaffaq al-Rubaie said.
“But I say one thing, permanent forces or bases in Iraq for any foreign forces is a red line that cannot be accepted by any nationalist Iraqi,â€
My prediction?
We will walk away from disaster in Iraq like we did in Vietnam.
When the US leaves, sooner or later it doesn’t matter, Shit will hit the fan and we’ll be forced to deal with whoever comes out on top there and just accept the situation as what it is.
And all our efforts will have been in vain. And all the lives and money lost will mean nothing. Just like in Vietnam.
#62 It isn’t that far away…
#63 That might be said publicly, but trust me, they will be there.
#65 A defeatist attitude for sure.
#64 A defeatist attitude for sure.
Time will tell which one of us will be proved right in the end, Robert.
Not defeatist…Realist.
