Hmmm . . . what's that about a "lie on WMD?" . . .

The important part of the article (link below) comes at the 16.32 and 16.52 points of the article.  Reprinted below:

Quote
16.52 The remaining chemical weapons from Saddam Hussein's regime are stored in two sealed bunkers, both located at the Al Muthanna Chemicals Weapons Complex, a large site in the western desert some 80km north west of Baghdad.
 
This was the principal manufacturing plant for both chemical agents and munitions during Saddam Hussein’s rule.
 
Thousands of tonnes of chemical weapons were produced, stored and deployed by the Saddam Hussein regime. Iraq used these weapons during the Iran - Iraq War (1980 to 1988) and against the Kurds in Halabja in 1988.
 

16.32 Isis jihadists have seized a chemical weapons facility built by Saddam Hussein which contains a stockpile of old weapons, State Department officials havetold the Wall Street Journal:
 
U.S. officials don't believe the Sunni militants will be able to create a functional chemical weapon from the material. The weapons stockpiled at the Al Muthanna complex are old, contaminated and hard to move, officials said.

Nonetheless, the capture of the chemical-weapon stockpile by the forces of the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham, known as ISIS or ISIL, the militant group that is seizing territory in the country, has grabbed the attention of the U.S.

"We remain concerned about the seizure of any military site by the ISIL," Jen Psaki, the State Department spokeswoman, said in a written statement. "We do not believe that the complex contains CW materials of military value and it would be very difficult, if not impossible, to safely move the materials."

The British media does the job that the American media refuses to do, because of their ideological biases.  And Jen Psaki is an idiot (IMO), in conjunction with Marie Harf.

You have been told over and over and over again by MSM, democrats and liberals that Saddam had no WMDs.....so he didn't have them. All that's in those bunkers is shaving cream.

Don't forget the ones that were transported to Syria on the lead up to the war in Iraq.

It's just a Burma shave factory...with the requisite Burma shave signs leading up to it...

Its amazing how the ****tards over on the left are now validating everything Bush said about Iraq having WMDs but refusing to admit it.

"They stole Iraqs WMDs, that magically appeared after we invaded" -****tarded Liberals


Yea, great logic there guys.  Thats about as sound as using a rock to clean up an oil spill.


And as an added bonus they are now saying its no big deal that a group of people who have publicly said they want to come to NYC have chemical weapons.  Its amazing how willing they are to bury their heads in the sand to tow the party line.
