That always "comes up" or what lead up to that idea.

before the war even began and the iraq military was begining to move their heavy equipment....
our fighter pilots were being fired apon by land-based anti -aircraft guns way out on the outskirts of desert...
in the no fly zone. That first shot fired IMO was the same as the revolutionary war's
"the shot heard round the world" musket blast

and we had the right (at that exact moment) to go in and finish the job
41 started regardless of ANYTHING else.

the wmd's and 90% of arrogant sadame's fortune were simply moved out of
the country to where they COULDN'T be found
long in advance of any military conflict.
Agreed. Also intersting to note that the head of Saddam's Air Force for many years is now coming out and saying the same thing about the WMD's. He claims they were flown to Syria before the US invasion. Via commercial airlines modified to hold the weapons so they wouldnt be detected. Don't know how credible this fellow is but it seems to go along with what many people have speculated about the past few years. I meen we know Iraq had the WMD's, thats not even debatable. The question is what the hell happened to them?
