    We sold him components but they had plenty of other uses.

    What are you TALKING ABOUT? Iraq was a mess when our guys liberated it, now it has hope. ISIS arose in Syria as past of the Syrian civil war spawned by the Arab Spring and it took over the eastern part of Syria and NW Iraq, not 'all over North Africa and the Middle East'.

    OK.. Provide an inventory of what we sold Saddam.. He was fighting Iran on our behalf to maintain the Dual Containment Policy. You think he was using that stuff to manufacture lawn chairs?

    And quite the proper thing to do. Just like backing the Yemenis today.

    \

    ISIS came out of Camp Bucca prison in Iraq in 2004 and consisted of former military in Saddam's army.. They regrouped in response to Maliki who was an Iranian stooge Bush put in office who grossly discriminated against Sunni in Iraq. You don't seem to know anything about Iraq or ISIS or North Africa.

    Churchill supported the gassing of Kurds and Arabs in Iraq in 1920.. Arthur Harris of the RAF lead the bombings.

    The Iraqi army was predominately Sunni. Saddam was largely secular. How did you get so much bad information?

    Come on dude, this is risible, the bipartisan committee says no such thing, only that the threat was exaggerated.

    No because it's essentially irrelevant now.

    No, Churchill said he was prepared to, no one actually did.

    Computers, gear for manufacturing chlorine (a 1000 and one uses), medical samples of anthrax etc to use in their medical industry. Remember Britain stopped the Iraqi supergun.

    You’re living in a alternative universe. My links work fine. And, as I expected there was nothing concrete in any of the the U.N reports saying there was 100% proof that Assad was behind the attack.

    Next, you must be living in a alternative universe when it comes to Iraq. Questionable intell was used to convince the American public that Saddam was a immediate threat to America. There was absolutely no link between Saddam, and Al Qaeda as the bush admin had previously told the public.

    No, it freed them in raids to boost its' manpower. Maliki was the only real choice, after years of Sunni dominance he was a centrist candidate to appease the Shia. Boy, you really don't know much about Iraq or Isis, do you? Do tell me about how they conquered North Africa again?

    Oh there were but it makes little difference to the insurgency. If Saddam had possessed an A-bomb it would have been just the same.

    You have no earthly clue. Maliki was as sectarian as they come. ISIS’s leader was jailed in Camp Bucca.

    Yes, they staged a raid to free recruits. Maliki was sectarian but that was a sop to the Shia after being dominated so long by the Sunnis. You really don't have an earthly, do you?
