Are Weapons of Mass Destruction Being Planted in Iraq for Future "Discovery"?
by Stan Moore

We continue to hear hints from various official sources in Iraq, including elected Iraqi officials that some expect an eventual discovery of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. This might provide a sort of ex post facto "legitimacy" to the invasion of Iraq.

Of course, we know that American forces scrutinized Iraq with the most sensitive testing and detection equipment available for many months after the invasion. We know that Iraqi military and government officials were detained and remain detained for many months, perhaps subjected to coercive methods of information retrieval in order to determine the existence and the location of any such weapons. No weapons have been found, despite this intensive and very expensive and thorough effort.

Yet, the subtle reminders that some still expect possible discovery of such weapons in the indefinite future require healthy suspicion. Would it be possible that the American or the American-influenced elected officials of Iraq to fabricate paperwork, munitions, or other evidence of WPM's? Surely they wouldn't deceive us, would they, intentionally?

This discovery may well occur when impeachment talk for George W. Bush becomes too loud to ignore. (my emphasis /jc)

1. At this point they'd pretty much have to try.

Desperation ain't pretty.

2. They've had stories on it previously

Some middle-eastern news source carried the story a little over a year ago that the US was seen unloading older Soviet style weapons that would be miraculously unearthed at just the right time.

However, I had thought it would be pre-election... info released close enough to the election that there would not be time to thorougly investigate the authenticity.

3. Oh, yeah

that'll be good.

"Dum-de-dum dum--HEY! Look what we found in Saddam's underwear drawer! A WMD! We never thought to look there! See--we didn't lie. No--ignore the manufacturer's stamp. It wasn't made in the USA, really. It's a fake stamp."

4. Only the most gullible would believe it at this point.

After all....how many teams of inspectors have we had in that country with free access to everything and come up empty handed?

5. i think they wanted to do this before.

my thought is that detailed analysis would pick up they they were not authentic and they decided it would be too risky.

6. All I can say

Is these liars will do anything they are shameless..

So HOLD onto every article you see discribing weapons being put into Iraq,Get a copy of every story about US planted bombs and gather them together.And splash them online organize them into webpages.Copy the sources before they dissapear.
drag out the evidence of the scam before they set up the scam.

7. Never,

only the dumbest of Americans would accept the idea that there are WMD's in Iraq, especially after hawks like David Kay said that there are none to be found.
