This war is the end of war as modern man has fought war ...

Tanks and planes ... men and machines started this war that
has now become a war of occupation.

We bascically have made all of Iraq a DMZ ...
All we have proved is
that you can't win a war. if you are a poor country, without WMD's.

This take over of Iraq and Afganistan may be the end of
war as we know it.

Now what do you think of first strike ... ?
Better be a solid as a rock President on the way.

I pray the next president to visit the war college every three
months just to train himself on how to react to some anti-American
country with WMD's threatening our way of life.

I don't see the enemies of Israel using anything so destructive with
Jerusalem being so Holy to their religion, but they have already used
the threat of WMD's

Israel has WMD's
Syria has Iraq's WMD's (don't argue just accept it)
Iran has WMD's
Saudi Arabia just has some old F-15's and some AWAC's
America has WMD's

WMD's can ruin your whole day ...

The generals are already looking at what this war cost ...

I wish it were the men that made a difference, but it is the
budget. We can't fight another war like this is the bottom line.

WMD's are not only cheaper for poor countries without a big
army, airforce, navy, but also for big rich in debt countries.

It would be foolish to fight another war like this one ...

America will have to adjust to the threat of WMD's from it's
enemies like never before ...

First strike vs a dragged out war that no one wants ...

Which one makes sense?

Gah, talk about getting weighed down in definitions.
How ever you describe concepts, it is the concept, not the word that counts.
Thank you.
Your concept is different then most of the worlds I think. The understanding of a definition could be the difference between a handshake and a knife in the back. (Just felt like being a little melodramatic )

You said:
"What was found after the invasion was old and useless."

No, chemical weapons where used with effect by Iraq against it's own people. Not a WMD, but not useless either.
Yes in 1988.

Try this definition. Some people swear by this channel. http://www.foxnews.com/printer_frien...,76887,00.html

Old news. Browse through the Iraqi WMDs Revisited thread to find several article links discussing Syria's supposed role in hiding the WMDs.

Unlike Geetrue, this is not to say that there is nothing to argue about.

This for those who disagree (no flaming here)

I know there are other long drawn out arguements
about it, else where.

Where did all of the WMD's go ...?

I just have a gut feeling about this. Saddam had them ...
He gave his airforce to Iran during Desert Storm or
right after the war at least, didn't he?

The war that's left is really just between the suni's
and the ****es anyway.

I keep trying to figure out how I can remember that
the ****es are the ones causing all of the trouble in
post war Iraq ... It'll come to me ... pun intended

I'm not hardheaded but I've read enough here and there that made me decide that Syria is not hiding any weapons. If they were there would have been some whisper somewhere about it that intelligence services could act on.

I've read lots and I have no way of drawing a definitive conclusion.

Here I strongly disagree with you. US intel (actually not just US) is just soooooooooooo baaaaaaaaaaad.

Well, US intelligence is clearly poorly informed, but not as poorly informed as our intelligence or the presses intelligence. Mainly because of the manpower, cash and technology that we, the people, generally lack.
Professional intelligence services do know more than us and are likely to be more accurate, but as has clearly been shown, do get it wrong.
That is of course, not to say that we should not endeavor to find the truth our selves and not believe a thing they tell us.
a) they might be wrong, althow we are more likely to be
b) they might be lying

I realize that, but there are a whole lot of different services out there that I'm pretty sure would not like WMD's floating around out of control of a responsible goverment. Just don't ask me to define a responsible goverment.

If this was about responsible governments. But it is not. Its about irresponsible governments and the terrorist organizations they support either directly or by complacency.
