In every interview I heard with Saddam, he always denied having weopons of mass destruction.In every weopons report on whether or not Saddam had mass destruction weopons the answer was no.In every word George Bush spoke to invade Iraq there were reports to discredit his many,many 935 and more lies.You say Saddam petended to bluff the Iranians.I guess George Bush pretended,lied to bluff the world and the American people.And not that many of Americans or the world were fooled so easily.If it had not been for the silencing of our voices by powerful rulers and their money powering censorship of a free nation and the world, this would not be what it is in Iraq.A holocaust! So don't start again with the "reconize the threat".
