Lets be real Iraq had missles that flew longer than allowed by the UN resoultions and there has been a mobile bio-lab found.
Why would you propose they had to have a bio-lab that was mobile?
These two items already prove that they had illegal weapons.
So in my book GW wasn't deceiving anybody.
And last of all why would a leader of a country on the brink of war with the worlds strongest military not cooperate with the worlds governing body the UN?
He was hiding something.

First of all, the while the missiles flew farther than allowable they didn't have a long enough range to reach anything.
The direct quote was from a UN inspector who claimed that such an argument was a technicality--for example, if the missile flies 110 km, we said they couldn't have them if they flew over 100km but the closest target was 170 km away, there is no imminent danger to us or our allies.
(I made these numbers up because I saw the interview on televison months ago--whatever numbers he used were along the lines of the ones I constructed)
Secondly, the "mobile labs" seem to not have been used for any WMDs according to the most recent news. Exactly when we will know is as yet undetermined since the investigation is not open to outside corroberation.
Finally, none of this matters because you've already made up your mind about the matter. I am somewhat surprised by anyone who makes his or her mind up in the face of a lack of information--and I am even more concerned when such people advocate that others should follow suit.
