THE MOONIE TIMES BITCH-SLAPS CHENEY
"...in the case of Iraq, the Bush administration began by making plans to get rid of Saddam Hussein, and realized only later that it might need to explain why. Judging from Vice President Dick Cheney's recent effort to rally support, it's still groping for a good excuse.

"The vice president said it would be intolerable for Saddam to expand his arsenal of weapons of mass destruction. Why? Because 'he is amassing them to use against our friends, our allies, and against us.' Once he has nukes, Saddam would 'seek domination of the entire Middle East, take control of a great portion of the world's energy supplies, directly threaten America's friends throughout the region, and subject the United States or any other nation to nuclear blackmail.'

"But several countries have nuclear weapons, and none has found them very useful in making others do their bidding." - more here.
