The WMD's May Have Been Found

10 years old? They were not supposed to be there ten years ago or today.
 
I for one am pleased to see that Saddam can no longer hold the world hostage with his weapons of mass destruction.
 
120mm mortar rounds are now WMDs? Oh-kay. Who was it months ago who was flaming me for saying the definition of WMD was being strained beyond all reason?

Well I suppose if the shell was stuffed with small pox and fitted onto the frount of an ICBM.

I mean by these standards my uni breaks most of the rules. (english university found to harbouring wepons of mass...) and whats in them? Some kind of blistering gas. Sure not excatly nice but hardy the stuff of WMDs. Anyone who has stayed awake through my course know how to make things far more lethal than that.

Yeah, well...by that logic a Gatorade bottle is a WMD because you could fill it with uranium and stick it inside an ICBM. :p

ZERO!

Don't give the terrorists ideas!
Terrorists?!? I'm afraid I'll give John Ashcroft ideas, and when he is done banning almanacs and internet porn, he'll get rid of Gatorade...and probably all the pro athletes who drink it!!
 
Some Friggin Guy said:



Like I said...Terrorists! :D
I think the biggest stockpile of weapons found so far has been in the possession of a bunch of white guys in Texas...can we invade Texas now?(hey, as long as I am putting ideas in people's heads...)
 
Okay boys, girls and other assorted politcally biased freaks, please define a WMD. No, come on, you have your own definiton of what the hell makes a wmd so define it. Then we can go into distribution methods of such. So define what it is, then bitch.
 
Well, Troll, how about this as a definition:

A supply of chemical, biological or nuclear agents which is sufficient to cause large amounts of death or suffering. 36 mortar shells which have been buried in the sand for over a decade just doesn't qualify.

Oh? And you've had them launched at you and as such qualify as an expert as to their usefullness?

I can make a chemical weapon in 4 minutes that will wipe out you and any other inbred within a 100 yard radius. But since it's so small a scale it doesn't qualify, does it?

Seriously, do your kind think before they speak or is it just cool to see multiple postings in order to think that makes you correct?

So what I can make a conventional weapion that can do that.

And? Would you qualify it as a WMD? pay attention here. There's a specific question being ignored by your kind. So answer the damned thing
 
Okay some of you are on the short bus

so I'll go slow here.

There is a claim as made by someone, not me, that mortar rounds filled with chemical weapons are not wmds because of ewither the size or age of said weapons.

Can they still function as a wmd? What is a wmd? who the hell is defining a wmd? Answer that then we can talk
 
Mr Manifesto said:


America shouldn't have sold the materials to Iraq, then.

Sorry, there is no such thing as a time machine to go back and change that. Fact is Iraq agreed to destroy their weapons and they broke that agreement as evidenced by their burial of these shells (assuming this story is true). Another violation of resolution 687.

Well lets see then. The first thing that both sides seem to agree on is that it must be either chemical (and by that I mean poisnes gasses and that kind of thing not high explosives), biological or nuclear. so we can rule out conventional weapons.

My normal defintion is:
Any theromunuclear device (the easy one)
Strategic Biological agents with sufficent killing power and sufficant quantity to kill at ~10000 people in a normal urban enviroment (yes we know that this mean that one seringe contain the small pox virus is a weapon of mass disscrution it is)
Strategic chemical weapons

this does not mean that tactical chemical and biological weapons are accepterble (and I can't really se how you would make an effective taticle biological weapon that was not a strategic weapon as well) mearly that they are not WMD.
