Dhimmicrat lies

Lon, the media were NOT describing the war accurately when tney said we were in a quagmire, when we stopped a couple of days for a sandstorm. They were not describing the war accurately when they said we allowed the looting of Iraq's ancient treasures, when what was looted was the sovenir shop. Most of the good stuff was in a vault. They were not describing the war accurately when they said we were targeting civilians and protected sites, like mosques and schools. the Iraqis knew we don't do that, which is why they put so many munitions there. They were not forecasting the war accurately when they predicted hundreds of thousands of civilian deaths, and tens of thousands of our service personel dead, nor when they predicted that Saddam would use his WMD on our soldiers. Most of that "targeting civilians" nonsense has died away, as we see the enemy actually targeting civilians, repeatedly.

As for WMD, read the Duelfer report. Of course there were weapons, and multiple programs that could be quickly converted to military use. Iraqis in a position to know, said that some of the stockpiles were transported to Syria, in those convoys of ambulances and tanker trucks, seen on our satellite photos. Last week, a CNN reporter admitted that he'd seen Iraqi insurgents trying to fill artillery shells with blister agents, in the first year after the invasion, which he casually described as leftover from Saddam's era. I certainly rememember that the Democrats, when they were in power, had no doubts about Saddam's weapons programs. I also remember the people, before the invasion, who sniped away at our government, weakening our bargaining position, effectivly giving Saddam assurance that we would not invade, and thus making invasion necessary.

As for connections between Saddam and bin Laden, these, too, were fundamental to the government's thinking and planning in the Clinnton years. What I resent as much as the Dhimmicrats' treason, is their lying to us all, about things I remember quite clearly, things I heard on NPR, not Fox News. Even if my conclusions are wrong and stupid, my memories certainly are not. Telling me I did not see what I saw, really pisses me off!
