"I said we are a target, I didn't say we were the only target.
WMD are not just a hobby for Saddam as evidenced by this Oct 2002 CIA report on Iraq's bnc programs. The report also outlines Saddam's single-digit defiance of the UN."
<would that be the middlemost digit?>
Rob, again, I have never argued that saddam is developing and holding WMD. Its just not a clear and present danger to us that justifies preemptive warfare.
"With a little deductive reasoning, it should be easy to see that these weapons, especially the bio-weapons, are not intended for tactical defensive purposes."
Why he has them and wants them- there could be 1000 answers. The point is he knows that if he uses them on us or an ally he is toast. I would damn near sign-up to go take him out id he did.
Again, WMD and hostility to america being a pretext for war means that there are MANY nations we should be marching on first, some of which have bona-fide 30 year history of fostering terrorism.
