When america and britain went to war, they claimed saddam had WoMD. Now it's obvious there were never any weapons, they reckon they were 'liberating' iraq (not that they did a very good job of it), it's odd because i don't see them packing off to liberia or any other african country thats over-run by people many times worse than saddam the same way they did a few months ago, no-one else I know seemed to recognise this fact, did anyone else?

I agree with the E man. Look at America they got mpore nukes or WOMD than all nations put together. They had the audacity to drop in on Japan and ruin untold lives and land. And now they wish to curb these problematic people, who the persume pose a threat to global society. I think America should take a good hard look at themselves and realise that we the western world are'nt fools. If they were honest and said they didn;t like the man Perid or we want OIL I'd give them more respect. But no they are lying cheating devious and dispicable and putting a bad wrap around western values
of course saddam had them america knew that because they sold them to him about 10 years ago!! lets not forget who put him into power in the first place!!! and yes why not go into other countries! and why now? it is very dubious
sorry didnt mean to put 10 years ago am a little drunk lol that would would have made it during the gulf war - which is when they said he had WofMD as well!! i meant in early 1960's during the coup against leader of iraq when usa sided with the baath, and put saddam into power
-- answer removed --
A few months before going to war the British government published that "dossier" setting out the supposed threat to world peace posed by Saddam's regime and its WMD. The dossier was apparently based on British intelligence services investigatioins. A day or two after the dossier was published, we learnt that parts of it were plagiarised from a US university student's thesis on the subject. If that doesn't make one sceptical then I can't imagine what would. In my opinion the WMD motivation is the most blatant of modern politics and it saddens me to see ostensibly intelligent people still believing in it.
Sorry - "blatant lie" is what I meant to say.
