[Artical] WMD's?

Havelock

In other comments, Mr. Powell said that he had expected that illegal weapons would have turned up by now, but that even if the weapons themselves were not found, the war against Iraq was justified because Mr. Hussein had the capacity to make the weapons and a record of using them.

"I would have expected something to be found," he said. "But it's not clear to me yet that we won't find the evidence we're looking for that would, once and for all, make the case incontrovertible."

"I think the war will be seen by history to be justified because we removed a regime that did have these weapons and gave us no reason to believe that they had eliminated them," Mr. Powell said. "If you want to believe the claims of Saddam Hussein, be my guest."

In other words:

No we didn't find anything, even though we promised you we would. 
But we [i]could[/i] have, and that justifies the entire war effort. 
Saddam is a bad man (tm) and you can't believe anything he tells you. 
We, on the other hand only tell absolute truths.

Well done Mr Powell. It takes talent to say that with a straight face.

I am planning to build weapons of mass destruction in my back garage! Oh no! I will be attacked by the for force of the US military!:rolleyes:

I still find it funny how the Saddam was meant to have WMDs (which could be deployed in 45 mins), but not photocopying facilities to copy a few documents?

You may try, but you will fail. When you fail, you will forfeit your lives. Now, who will be the first to try?
