The UN's Biggest Scandal

I think that everyone in the world, save for blind liberals, thought Sadam had WMD and he acted as if he had them and would use them given the chance. It would have been highly irresponsible for any President to ignore that threat and do nothing as Kerry proscribes. It is always easier to say what is the best thing to do after the fact, which is what Kerry is now doing. But smart people, half of the country, knows better. I doubt this will change anything, because it has been common knowledge for some time that the WMD are not there now. But that still leaves a huge question. Why did Sadam act as if he had them. I keep going back to why Sadam acted like he had them because if he had not prevented the inspectors from having full access and hadn't kicked them out he could have stayed in power. Don't forget the fact that Sadam paid off most of the UN who were in his pocket and doing his bidding. This is the most damming scandal of the UN. Billions of dollars taken from the mouths of starving Iraq's and given to the French, Germans, Russians etc to get them to force the UN to lift sanctions. If we had not gone to war when we did, those countries, having been bought off, would have forced a lifting of the sanctions which would have empowered Sadam far beyond what he could have ever been. Not going to war, knowing what we know now, would have been the biggest mistake the world has ever made. And it would have been brought about by the bribes Sadam made to the French, Germans, Russians etc. Kerry will make a lot of the report and those dim zealots, will believe what he says. Down through history people like Kerry have come along and preached this sort of nonsense. It's more than a difference of opinion when historical fact can prove them wrong. However, that won't make a difference to the true believers who, either are incapable of seeing the facts in front of them or are just incapable of understanding reality.
