    Even as late as 2006, 50% of the population believed Iraq possessed WMD's at the outset of hostilities.
    Ah, the old "Lot's of people were as stupid as I am" gambit.

    How is saying Saddam didn't use WMDs on US forces in the Gulf War rewriting history?

    Explain this to me.
    Selective memory. I guess you forgot that he THREATENED to use them if we invaded. Just more reinforcement that (we thought) he had them and was willing to use them.

    I hated the war in Iraq because there was never a viable exit strategy. For the same reason I hated Obama helping the "rebels" in Libya. Now we have a bunch of ing Islamic fanatics running around with surface to air missiles. Just wait till they start blowing up with THOSE.
    What will they blow up with THOSE?

    I don't think that was an unreasonable position.

    Still thinking today Iraq had WMD is an unreasonable position.

    Who knows? helicopters in Afghanistan? Civilian passenger Planes landing at JFK or DFW?

    Those ers fit in a small suitcase. It's not like our borders aren't porous.

    How the do you think they ran the Soviets out of Afghanistan? We gave them stingers and that countered the soviets air superiority/mobility.

    Selective memory. I guess you forgot coalition forces did indeed invade Iraq in 1991.

    So you're saying we should invade Libya now to get a few missiles.

    Too late. The damage is already done. We just have to live with the consequences of that up.

    Gadaffi had basically been neutered and was no long a major threat. Lesser of evils in my opinion.

    SAMs existed in the Muslim world before Libya. Why haven't they shot down planes at DFW yet?

    Okay. Your prerogative. I think it's reasonable.

    I also think it's reasonable to believe that if nothing had changed between 2003 and 2006 to change your mind, it isn't likely that anything would occur between 2006 and 2011. It's also reasonable to believe, like I do, that even though you believed in 2003, 2006, or 2011 that WMD's existed in 2003 -- they may no longer be found because they were destroyed, moved, or well hidden.

    I think it's reasonable to believe Jimmy Hoffa was murdered even though we may never find his body.

    Suit yourself chump. Keep believing there is no threat from radical islamics when they now have shoulder held surface to air missiles.

    I feel like not enough consideration was given to Yoni's brief implication that there may be undiscovered Iraqi WMDs hiding under the desert sands.

    Maybe, but if you can't post a positively confirming link on the internet it can't possibly be true.

    You mean we're leaving Iraq and leaving stockpiles of WMD behind?

    But, you never answered the question of whether or not unreasonable people can hold reasonable positions.
