I don't see any problem here, it'll all come back.....used :-(

I guess you could class 400tonnes of explosive a WMD if it was set off
in one go.

So now you're saying there were WMD's.


Does that mean that the US and every other army in the World posesses
WMD?


The US certainly does.


GWB better organise an invasion..he can then use up his stocks of
weapons and claim that he's not a threat to World
security.....anymore.


Only by your twisted arguments that lack any basis in morality.

Come on, Oz, that's not much. Think about how much AN and diesel is on
NSW farms :-)

Still it is a tad careless.

Maybe you should reassess your statements.

Maybe you should assess what you're standing in:

Moral equivalence
Moral equivalence is a term used in political debate, usually to negatively
characterize the humanist claim that 'there can no moral or ethical
hierarchy decided between two sides in a conflict, nor in the actions or
tactics of the two sides.' The term has some limited currency in polemic
debates about the Cold War, and more currently, the Israel-Palestine
conflict. "Moral equivalence" arose as a polemic term-of-retort to "moral
relativism," which had been gaining use as an indictment against political
foreign policy that appeared to use only a situation-based application of
widely-heldethical standards.

You must be a direct descendant of Mungo Man.

You said:

GWB better organise an invasion..he can then use up his stocks of
weapons and claim that he's not a threat to World
security.....anymore."

Moral equivalence... do you get it yet?

Waffle.....Please explain what the above rubbish has to do with the
400 tonnes of explosive that the US allowed to be removed.
Explosives that didn't consist of one single WMD.

Peter;

It was damn careless, as well as Supid!!

The same could be said for Pez candy.
