Fact:
The invasion was planned and executed on the wrongful assumption that Iraq had WMD,s, no WMD,s have been located.
Тhere is something apparently missing from this statement:
Iraq COULD HAVE destroyed ALL her chemical weapons AND re-create them in very short period of time!

I was wandering all these years why such a simple idea has never been popular with the media?

Now, in his book about the war, the former undersecreary of Defence Douglas J. Feith
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/se...s%20J.%20Feith

wrote that in the CIA report has been mentioned that Saddam could restore his WMD stockpiles in 3-5 weeks!

I have thought, it would be much longer than that.!

However, the Administration has not bother to highlight this fact buried in 400-pages report and the Media has not liked the idea of uncovering this.

To me, an ability to produce the WMD in 5 weeks after lifting of the sanctions is pretty much the same as the real stockpiles.
Am I stupid in believing in this?
