[insert sarcastic WMD remark here]So, on January 12, 2005, the United States declare yet another lost war by ending the search for WMD in Iraq. I wonder...WHO could have foreen this coming [insert bit more sarcasm here]?? But wait, why is the war over? They're still in Iraq aren't they? Didn't they get what they wanted in the first place? Oh THAT's right...they got Saddam! That WAS the whole objective of the war on terror in the first place.....wasn't it?
Well obviously this is no big surprise to most people. Just like some evil marketing scheme, they use WMD as a selling point to go to war, and then cheat you of your money... all you get is a shrivelled bearded man hiding in a hole in the ground. The main point being, obviously Bush and Blair went to war despite a no-go from the UN because even Hans Blix said more time was needed to determine if Iraq had WMD or capabilities to make them. Meanwhile, Bush and Blair were twitching away, finger ready on the trigger, eager as ever to jump the gun. So I ask again, how does a country of freedom vote for the jackass who told you there were WMD, sarcificed your sons' lives to get them, and then 2 years later tell you...."woopty doo, my bad!" Let's see what our resident lapdog Blair has to say:
"In Britain Prime Minister Tony Blair faced similar criticism. He told his Labour Party's annual conference last September that the "evidence about Saddam having actual biological and chemical weapons, as opposed to the capability to develop them, has turned out to be wrong. "I acknowledge that and accept it," he said. "I simply point out, such evidence was agreed by the whole international community, not least because Saddam had used such weapons against his own people and neighboring countries. "And the problem is I can apologize for the information that turned out to be wrong, but I can't, sincerely at least, apologize for removing Saddam. "The world is a better place with Saddam in prison not in power."
Is it really, Mr Blair? Is it really...? Because I can't quite see Mr Hussein nuking us with weapons he DOESN'T have.
