The government's most definitive account of Iraq's weapons of mass destruction programs, to be released today, will show that Saddam Hussein posed a diminishing threat at the time the United States invaded and did not possess nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons or have concrete plans to develop them, US officials said yesterday.
The officials said the 1,000-page report by Charles Duelfer, chief US weapons inspector in Iraq, concluded that Hussein had the desire but not the means to produce unconventional weapons that could threaten his neighbors or the West. President Bush has continued to assert in his campaign stump speeches that Iraq had posed ''a gathering threat."
The officials said Duelfer, an experienced former United Nations weapons inspector, found that the state of Hussein's weapons development programs and knowledge base was less in 2003, when the war began, than it was in 1998, when international inspectors left Iraq.
No gathering threat.
No imminent threat.
Sanctions were working.
Inspections were working.
Bill Clinton lied about a tawdry affair. George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, and their neocon masters lied about Saddam Hussein so that they could send YOUR sons and daughters to die for their dreams of empire.
Which was more damaging to America?
Which constitutes "high crimes and misdemeanors?"
They lied, and over 1050 American young people died (along with tens of thousands of Iraqi civilians).
Now what are you going to do about it?
