Was there credible evidence that Iraq had WMDs?

Did the intelligence community genuinely believe that Iraq had nuclear, chemical (outside mustard gas), or nuclear weapons, that warranted the USA attacking Iraq?

I thought we knew they had remnants of the old WMD's we gave/sold them, but nothing else that warranted the attack.

Nothing they tell us is true, it is all a sleight of hand. Once you realize this, everything makes sense and you can no longer be fooled. You just watch in dismay as the foolish take the bait over and over again.

The US knew they had previously provided Iraq with chemical and bioweapons (aka WMDs), but that was decades earlier and they had no evidence that Iraq still had any of them, and it turned out they didn't.

If you’re asking that type of a question 20 years after Iraq war, where it’s basically common knowledge then you are one of the reasons why corrupt politicians get elected in the first place.

Yes they did! And Iran has nukes! We need to invade ASAP to stop them!


Does this benefit America who is located thousands of miles away? Probably not, but it does benefit Israel! And the jews would never lie to us!

Even up here in Canada we heard that if Bush won in 2000 that America would invade Iraq.

George Bush is an Evangelical Christian who believes Jebus can only return if the Juice inhabits Israel.

Bush believes that Iraq and Iran are Gog and Magog and needs to be destroyed.


Iran is next.

Iraq had enough sarin gas to kill everyone on the planet twice over, but didn't have the means to do so, not by a long shot.

It was just some bullchit excuse to destabilize an entire region and cause further conflict.

No. The evidence was 50 50 at best, and the US had other reasons to attack so they lied and moved on it.

yep just more jew clown ****. you'd think they would have atleast planted some WMD's in there to justify the war but i guess they figured since they control the media in the west it doesn't matter.

America is not a serious country, many Americans died to defend that satanic **** hole israel. Those people behind this war and the ones who orchestrated 9/11 are national heros in israel now. Israel got everything they wanted from that, they even sent the rapefugees to Europe.


they wipe their asses with american lives. These people hate us and they aren't ****ing around.

and now we are going to do the same thing with Iran and probably go to war with the world.. we will probably not be coming back from that one though.

Define "credible".
Actually, **** that. A credible lie is still a lie. And it wasn't even all that credible.
People with sense knew it was a preamble to the US doing whatever the **** they wanted, regardless of facts, and it didn't even need to be credible, just repeated often enough.

That scene in Arrested Development when Tobias accidentally takes and uploads a closeup photo of his nutsack, and it ends up being interpreted by military intelligence experts as photographic evidence of Iraqi WMD factories hidden in the desert and used as the reason to declare war ...

... that was pretty close to the actual level of the evidence they used.

I was barely legal drinking age, barely followed politics but reading some papers at the time I said "this sounds like some bullsheeeeiiiiiiit."

If you supported the US funding Ukraine's money funneling war at any point in the last 2 years, there's a 150% chance you believed the WMD lies about Iraq.

Nukes? No. They only tried to build a dirty one but never got there.

We know they DID have chemical weapons as they used them to gas the Kurds and Iran

It was a lie, they knew it was a lie. Read what Colin Powell said about it after the fact.

Always gives me a good laugh when Liberals state how they could see through the government's lies about Iraq yet they've fallen for all of the other government charades over the past decade.

It's a complete 180. Libs used to be the ones that questions the institutions, media, etc. But in the last 8-10 years, their trust in the institutions and media has skyrocketed while it has plummeted among independents and conservatives.

I suppose it's just confirmation bias? They are being told exactly what they want to hear, and therefore soak it up.

It’s more than just trusting…not only will they proudly post their injection photos, wear their masks, fly their Ukraine flags, etc….but they’ll readily attack anyone who doesn’t follow along with them. Pretty remarkable transformation and shows just how strong the demoralization has been. From dissidents to foot soldiers in 2 short decades





Oh yeah, and also:










Similar thing with Russia and NATO. We’ve steadily applied pressure to push Russia to a breaking point knowing very well where it would lead. If Russia did HALF the stuff to us that we’ve done to them we would’ve been at war a long time ago. And no, not saying Russia doesn’t do terrible things. Just pointing out how we’ve knowingly pushed things in this direction.

Well the media shapes the opinions of these people. As Maestro so kindly displayed, these people only have a casual desire to stay informed, so they'll just tune into whatever media outlet they're used to and take in whatever that outlet has to say. Over time they become emotionally invested in their preferred outlets and never think to question the outlet's motives or the content that's provided to them.

Because these people generally lack principles and rely on the media for their beliefs, you'll see their positions on matters ebb and flow depending on what position their media outlet takes. That's why there's never really any consistency with their positions, it's just whatever is politically advantageous at the time.

Mother Jones & NPR used to be great, now they're both government propaganda mouth pieces. Liberals will swear the opposite though because they lack the self awareness to see they've been manipulated and emotionally captured by these outlets.

Thus, the complete 180 and retarded regurgitations we have to deal with from the Left.
