What the OP is failing to recall is the sheer number of LIES pouring out of the Bush admin. convincing some Dems to vote that way.

OP would have us believe this is all the fault of the Democrats, for voting to go along with Republicans in the invasion of Iraq. What the OP is failing to recall is the sheer number of LIES pouring out of the Bush admin. convincing some Dems to vote that way. "Yellow cake uranium", "WMDs", and the phony evidence connecting Saddam to Al Qaeda and the 9/11 attack (to name a few).

So, are you actually claiming that the Dems are so stupid they can not think for themselves?

Saddam was using mustard gas on the kurds in the north of iraq, he had labs that were holding the vanished gasses that went to syria, mustard gas IS a WMD, but do not forget kwait, what happened there is forgotten so easily, but as far as having reasonable faith during a crisis in bammy, clinton, and kerry??? really???
Wikipedia's article on Iraq's WMDs gives a good rundown of the international contributions:
All told
, 52% of Iraq's international chemical weapon equipment was of German origin.
Around 21% of Iraq’s international chemical weapon equipment was French.
About 100 tons of mustard gas also came from Brazil.
The United Kingdom paid for a chlorine factory that was intended to be used for manufacturing mustard gas
An Austrian company gave Iraq calutrons for enriching uranium. The nation also provided heat exchangers, tanks, condensers, and columns for the Iraqi chemical weapons infrastructure, 16% of the international sales.
Singapore gave 4,515 tons of precursors for VX, sarin, tabun, and mustard gasses to Iraq.
The Dutch gave 4,261 tons of precursors for sarin, tabun, mustard, and tear gasses to Iraq.
Egypt gave 2,400 tons of tabun and sarin precursors to Iraq and 28,500 tons of weapons designed for carrying chemical munitions.
India gave 2,343 tons of precursors to VX, tabun, Sarin, and mustard gasses.
Luxemburg gave Iraq 650 tons of mustard gas precursors.
Spain gave Iraq 57,500 munitions designed for carrying chemical weapons. In addition, they provided reactors, condensers, columns and tanks for Iraq’s chemical warfare program, 4.4% of the international sales.
China provided 45,000 munitions designed for chemical warfare.

The Before:
To be brutally honest here the current us administration, and those people on capitol hill.
Have a severe lack of credibility.
Always trying to have it both ways.
It is important that both videos be watched, because it is the topic.

No it isn't.
It has everything to do with the US taking the 'moral high ground' when it comes to Ukraine.
Since the last decade is on display that those people in Washington will say whatever the hell they want.edit on 3-3-2014 by neo96 because: (no reason given)
The "moral high ground" would be to stay out of the politics of other nations.
