I don't know any facts about transferring WMDs to Syria, but it may make sense that Iraq would transfer the WMDs to Syria. If it did, and that intel was available to Bush, then Bush misled us even more than I thought.
Come on, Dan. The report concluded that there were contacts, but no ties, between Iraq and Al Quaeda. I don't know why you would bring up those meetings unless you are challenging the report's conclusion. Please don't do that unless you have the evidence to back it up. Otherwise, it's just speculation.
Again...my POINT was there is ALOT we still do not know, but ALOT of people are jumping to broad conclusions, largely for political advantage. It is my oppinion we have a number of revelations in store for for us in the comming years about Iraq and what Saddam was up to..
Truck convoys going to Syria is not proof (so not sure how Bush mislead here??). But we are adding new pieces to the puzzel.
Iraqi intell met with Al Qaeda.. what was discussed is unknown. That is my conclusion...we do not know what was planned, not planned, discussed, not discussed. Search MIGA and HSA yourself....interesting but not conclusive. What did Saddam do with 11+ billion dollars? Why did Al-Zarqawi come to Baghdad for his medical care after being wounded in Afganistan then go to the N. Iraq Ansar al Islam terrorist camp? Coincidence? I keep hearing that these fundamentalists wanted no part of Saddam's secular society...
How far did the UN corruption go? What were Russian special OPs doing in Iraq? It just goes on and on..
It does appear Saddam did not have an active WMD program, but he acted like he had something to hide. Speculation on my part...yes. I have no proof. We are learning new stuff daily. I can say (speculate seems too weak) that whatever was going on was not likely to be revealed by the UN.
We both smell a rat I think, you think it is Bush, I think the smell comes from the direction of the UN building and Iraq. We will see..
