    Why would they be planted? Iraq had WMDs. You don't need to plant something that is already there.
    'There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and principalities, it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.'"
    G'Kar - from Babylon 5 episode "Z'ha'dum"

      At first, I thought that would be the obvious answer to the problem. But after some more thought, why bother.
      A majority of Americans don't really seem to care that nothings been found. The DieHards know we will find something eventually.

      But if you got caught, people would care.

        Good point rah... getting caught would hurt the administration.

        As you say, the diehard repubs expect us to still find them...

        Many people don't care...

        And the hard core left will be convinced the US planted them even if they are found.

        So why bother... nothing to gain, and lots to lose.
        Keep on Civin'

                We do of course. These people don't represent the US public.

                  Americans wouldn't care.

                  Europeans wouldn't believe it.

                  Maybe.

                  Generalizing wildly.

                    I don't believe that we would plant WMDs in Iraq...but I also don't believe that any will be found...and even if they are found it won't justify the war.

                      I'm surprised.

                      ...and even if they are found it won't justify the war.

                      Yes, but if they are found, the Bush Administration would look like mere idiots rather than incompetent delusional idiots.

                        I don't know why everybody else doesn't care, but they don't seem to. I don't care because, strictly speaking, WMD wasn't what the reason that I supported the invasion. In my view, taking down Saddam was unfinished business and we were still fighting Gulf War I.

                          The conspiracy theorists of the left never cease to amaze me in the intricacies of their paranoia.

                              What do you want us to say? The polls show that Americans don't care too much, but don't ask why they don't care.

                              There was a smorgasbord of reasons for taking down Saddam. People chose their own reasons, or combination of reasons. But even though the reasons are unknown, we do know that support for taking out Saddam was very consistent over a 12 year time period -- within the margin of error of 62%.
