Moscow is right that we should not get involved in that mess, but otherwise, tis just politics.
The US didn't frame Saddam. Saddam framed Saddam, in attempt to hold off the Iranian regime.
You may be missing his point.Are you one of the three Americans left that believe that?
Now answer the question.Hans Blixx said that he had been given access to all areas requested including presidential palaces and even joked that Saddam let him look under his beds and guess what. There were no WMD and he was furious when his team was advised by the US to evacuate the country because bombing was going to start tomorrow. He returned to the Netherlands and wrote a scathing condemnation of the Bush administration if you recall.
“I am absolutely convinced that there are weapons…I saw evidence back in 1998 when we would see the inspectors being barred from gaining entry into a warehouse for three hours with trucks rolling up and then moving those trucks out.” — Clinton’s Secretary of Defense William Cohen in April of 2003

Now answer the question.
Saddam said he destroyed them. Well...that certainly solves the missing CHEMICAL WEAPONS dilemma. And Blixx agreed huh? Because Saddam let him look in his pockets? Thats about as stupid as Sean Penn accompanying Saddam holding his junk then blaming Clinton for killing millions of children.So what. Saddam said he destroyed them and Blixx essentially confirmed it. So I was wrong, there's four Americans that still believe Bush's lie.
It was a 2 part question. I did you the favor of answering the total number. Now...WHY did they have to pass SEVENTEEN UN Resolutions attempting to force compliance? Why did Clinton lie about Iraqs WMDs? Why did Clintons Defense Secretary lie about deliberate efforts to block UN inspectors?Sense you included the answer in your question it seemed rhetorical.

I gave you quotes from CLINTONS sec of defense as well as links to the DoD website during the CLINTON admin...yet you fail right back into that weak ass Bush meme. The FACT is that Blixx was completely ineffective in his search for WMDs. But wait...how about an actual quote from Blixx himself...Blixx was the man charged with finding WMD and he didn't because they're weren't any, not in 2003. But THAT didn't matter, attacking Iraq and toppling Saddam was Bush's ambition while he was yet governor of Texas. Jesus, I didn't think anybody still believed the Bush meme.

While Blix was making that statement, Iraqi trucks were shipping the WMD to Syria. Isn't Moscow is doing the same as they did in the 90's in Serbia and the ethnic cleansing that took place there. While I'm at it, the same guy that was for the invasion of Iraq before he was against it has failed to see this present go before the UN to make the U.S. position clear. I guess that before Bush went along with Clinton's Iraq Liberation Act he did take it to the UN twice. What has Obama done except rattle the sabre?
Fact: Saddam faked a WMD program to fend of the Iranian regime. Deal with it.

Satellite Photos Support Testimony That Iraqi WMD Went to Syria
The history books on this issue shouldn’t be written just yet.

Ha’aretz has revived the mystery surrounding the inability to find weapons of mass destruction stockpiles in Iraq, the most commonly cited justification for Operation Iraqi Freedom and one of the most embarrassing episodes for the United States. Satellite photos of a suspicious site in Syria are providing new support for the reporting of a Syrian journalist who briefly rocked the world with his reporting that Iraq’s WMD had been sent to three sites in Syria just before the invasion commenced.
The newspaper reveals that a 200 square-kilometer area in northwestern Syria has been photographed by satellites at the request of a Western intelligence agency at least 16 times, the most recent being taken in January. The site is near Masyaf, and it has at least five installations and hidden paths leading underneath the mountains. This supports the reporting of Nizar Nayouf, an award-winning Syrian journalist who said in 2004 that his sources confirmed that Saddam Hussein’s WMDs were in Syria.
One of the three specific sites he mentioned was an underground base underneath Al-Baida, which is one kilometer south of Masyaf. This is a perfect match. The suspicious features in the photos and the fact that a Western intelligence agency is so interested in the site support Nayouf’s reporting, showing that his sources in Syria did indeed have access to specific information about secret activity that is likely WMD-related. Richard Radcliffe, one of my co-writers at WorldThreats.com, noticed that Masyaf is located on a road that goes from Hamah, where there is an airfield sufficient to handle relatively large aircraft, into Lebanon and the western side of the Bekaa Valley, another location said to house Iraqi weapons.
It seems to be commonly accepted that Iraq did not have WMDs at all. The intelligence was obviously flawed, but the book has not been closed on what actually happened. The media blasted the headline that Charles Duelfer, the head of the Iraq Survey Group tasked with finding out if Saddam had WMDs, concluded that a transfer did not occur. In reality, his report said they were “unable to complete its investigation and is unable to rule out the possibility that WMD was evacuated to Syria before the war” due to the poor security situation.
[Excerpt]

The theory that Iraq’s WMD went to Syria is not a fringe conspiracy theory. John Loftus, a former Justice Department prosecutor known for his wide-ranging contacts in the intelligence community, said in an interview we did that “every senior member of a Western, European or Asian intelligence service whom I have ever met all agree that the Russians moved the last of the WMDs out of Iraq in the last few months before the war.”

Those who believe that the WMD being used by Assad just happened to come into Syria by wishes should check the wacky weed they are using.
