Soxplosion Posted March 24, 2003 Share Posted March 24, 2003 Saddam you lying piece of crap. Shooting POWs, hiding and lying about chemical weapons, not to mention using them on Iranian troops and your own citizens. THE US MILITARY WILL DESTROY YOU. So have fun, cuz its over! Youre doomed!

Was Blix given enough time to find weapons all over the nation of Iraq, destroy the ones he found (these are f***ing lethal weapons, that takes time) Being hurried throughout Iraq and not given much time by the United States, I am gonna say that Blix would have found them...if given the adequate time they needed to find everything. Also, they don't know what chemicals and stuff it is yet. So, let's wait for the analysis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad we found it instead of had them use the stuff there on us (If there are weapons there and I'm assuming there are). I sure hope we can find all of them before the Iraqi's use them.

Its there, but it says I don't have the plan or something. I just assumed digital cable came with those type of channels. I just found a whole lot of channels I never knew I had with digital cable, of course we got the basic plan for digital cable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think its that, but if the people of Iraq rejoice around this and it somehow sways the middle east opinion of the US, then that would be huge. I couldn't imagine being alive or at least while I'm this young and seeing a middle east that is more peacefull, etc. I do think everything there gets blown out of proportion by the minority radicals, but I've never been there so I don't know.

I'm just throwing out an idea as I don't know what was going on. But Blix was there for quite a long time or at least UN inspectors were. Whether you talk about this current time period or previous time periods, so overall man hours spent were plenty to find things like this. I know you once said he had 95% cooperation, well you don't know what is with the other 5% and this may be just a small portion of the other 5%.

Chisoxfn Posted March 24, 2003 Share Posted March 24, 2003 Oh ya, Analysis is necessary. I still don't see it as a PR nightmare because they are only calling it what it is, a Chemical Plant, they don't know whats there yet. I mean we know he had chemical weapons so he's had plants, maybe he hadn't used it in a long time, who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwsox Posted March 24, 2003 Share Posted March 24, 2003 If Kalamazoo, Michigan was invaded, the number of chemical plants found would be amazing. Does Viagra grows on trees? Or asprirn? Or cleaning solvents? Like so many other rumors that have turned out not to be true, I'd be banking on this one yet. Of course Iraq has chemical plants. Everybody does. If a chemical weapon plant of this size were to exist and had not been found, then I would ask a lot of questions of what US intelligence was telling the UN weapons inspectors anytime from 1991 to a week ago. But a large chemical, plant found? You all probably live within hailing distance of one. There have been too damn many rumors and conclusion jumping already. Can't we all wait until it is not a breathless story by a 24 news channel that has to fill airtime with something, but a confirmed story?
