Re: Iraq's WMD Secreted in Syria, Sada Says
And again I ask the question that no pro-war activist can answer me: Why didn't Saddam use the WMD's he supposedly had at the moment that the coalition forces entered/invaded Iraq? Why would Saddam choose to move these weapons abroad instead of using them against the forces that would surely dethrone and imprison him? Many thing can be said about this terrible man, but to consider him a fool I would not do.
About the oil-aspect, I do not think the sole reason for invading Iraq was oil, I think Dubya was probably more seeking revenge for daddy, but I do believe that the oil is a thing, which keeps the US looking to the middle-east and the political moves in that region with much more interest than it would, say to central Africa.
