Very interesting, but unfortunately, it's old news.
Fact is, the search for WMD, as important as it is, is waning as a story in the media. Time to turn attention elsewhere:
Where is that? Disgruntled Iraq in general. We invaded it with purpose of releasing its population from tyranny. Well, in some cases, more tyrrany is being imposed on the population now -- and not by our presence -- but by the infrastructure that is not yet in place four months after Bush declared the war "over."
Unfortunate aspects (collateral, fallout, caught in the crossfire - use whatever term you please) are our troops. They're being killed daily, and as I see it, forgotten daily by the Administration who sent them.
I cannot except the scheme of WMD and Saddam as being reason enough to go to war, but I've said this many times. I still want proof of WMDs, but it seems there is none as this article says.
Interestingly enough, however, is a poll of Americans conducted today which states half the population believe Saddam was linked with Al Queda, and that he retained WMDs at his disposal. Bush is lucky he has such gullibility at his behest.
