    On 23 January 2004, the head of the ISG, David Kay, resigned his position, stating that he believed WMD stockpiles would not be found in Iraq. "I don't think they existed," commented Kay.

    His report

    • Saddam ended his nuclear program in 1991. ISG found no evidence of concerted efforts to restart the program, and Iraq’s ability to reconstitute a nuclear weapons program progressively decayed after 1991.
    • Iraq destroyed its chemical weapons stockpile in 1991, and only a small number of old, abandoned chemical munitions were discovered by the ISG.

    Denying the historical record is more than absurd. It borders on delusional.

    Name calling and conspiracy theories are "the historical record" ??

    No, the historical record is that there were no WMD, that Colin Powell and others lied through their teeth to the media and the UN, and that April Glaspie's testimony in Congress was televised on CSPAN which I happened to watch.

    You may be willfully ignorant, but others of us are not.

    Powell and Glasgow ?? That’s a dynamic duo.

    Thanks, and that is a vacuous post if there ever was one. A vacuous dodge, which is a typical response when one is unable to admit his error.

    Or when a claim is not worth the time to respond.
