<h4>Important Notice !!! The link above points to a page where an enitre NY Times, Oct. 3, 2004 News Article is displayed, under the "fair use" doctrine. The article contents have no relationship to "truthout . org. Any attempt to denigrate or distract from the information in the article by linking it's contents to truthout .org, is a cheap, "troll like" tactic intentionally posted by folks here who should know better!! Challenge: post another link that displays the article at another site, and I'll change the link to the article in this post.</h4>
(The following describes the article that I posted on this thread yesterday..)
To refresh your memories about the article that I posted here yesterday, here's the "intro": |

Quote:
To put the issue of weapons of mass destruction in a truthful historical perspective Robert Kagan of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace on June 8 published an excellent article in the Washington Post stating: "There is something surreal about the charges flying that President Bush lied ... [about weapons of mass destruction]. The absurdity of this charge is mind-boggling. ... Start with this: The Iraqi government in the 1990s admitted to U.N. weapons inspectors that it had produced 8,500 liters of anthrax and a few tons of VX for years."
Kagan also cites the report that chief weapons inspector Hans Blix delivered to the U.N. Security Council on Jan. 27 stating that: (1) there is "no convincing evidence" they were ever destroyed, (2) Iraq possessed enough "bacterial growth media" to produce "5,000 litres of concentrated anthrax," (3) "it is likely that Iraq retains stockpiles of anthrax, botulinum toxin and aflatoxin" and (4) there were 6,500 "chemical bombs" weighing 1,000 tons that Iraq admitted producing but whose whereabouts were unknown.
Kagan also provides detailed quotes from former vice president Al Gore, former CIA director John Deutch and former secretary of defense William Cohen of the Clinton administration, all piously warning the nation of the dangers of Saddam's secret weapons. Finally, Kagan closes his article with excerpts from a speech made by former president Clinton, who stated unequivocally that Iraq had 5,000 gallons of botulinum, 2,000 gallons of anthrax, 25 biological-filled Scud warheads and 157 aerial bombs.
At the conclusion of his speech Clinton warned of "the kind of threat Iraq poses - a rogue state with weapons of mass destruction, ready to use them or provide them to terrorists who travel the world among us unnoticed."

Even Clinton was right at times. Could you post any information you possess that contradicts the above, or that makes you a more reliable source than Kagan, Blix, or Clinton?
