tangental to this we discussed how lumping all the weapons under the heading "WMD" was done to create a more ominous impression of Saddam's military might/ability to strike the US...
Mustard Gas is a crappy weapon, and there was ZERO threat to the US from his stockpiles...
ditto most of the weapons in his "WMD" inventory.
many had shelf lives that expired....
Yet hoon continued to insist he was a credible threat to attack us within our borders.
This argument continued on to the garbage assertions of Saddam's nuclear program.
