Thread Name: BS: Where are the WMDs?
Subject: RE: BS: Where are the WMDs?
troll, I have asserted all along that any country which is being menaced and attacked on a regular basis by certain larger countries has every right to build and have ANY weapons of mass destruction...just not the right to pre-emptively use them on others.

And I regard the WMD issue to be a complete red herring, which has taken various people in, you included. It didn't matter whether or not Iraq had such weapons, they were effectively almost helpless against their opposition.

Therefore, I hardly care whether they find any WMD's or not. It makes no friggin' difference.

Pakistan & India obviously feel they have a right to have weapons of mass destruction. So does Israel (but they have them secretly...or unofficially, you might say). So does anyone out there.

This is a case of a big criminal gang with oh, 500 tommy guns and hit men complaining about one little guy across the street (whom they intend to kill at the first good opportunity) maybe having a pistol hidden somewhere in his house!

It's so fucking outrageous that it's almost beyond belief.

Therefore, I assert that the hypocrisy being displayed around this issue has its larger share on your side of the argument, though it's not all there, of course.

You're just enjoying yourself scoring petty points, that's all. That's what people do when their ego is engaged. You do it, I do it, everybody does it.

Sober up and get real. WMD's were never the real reason for this war.
