CHICAGO (NFTF.org) -- Weeks after Saddam Hussein's regime in Iraq collapsed,
there are still no signs of his alleged weapons of mass destruction. Before
the invasion of Iraq by the United States, the Bush administration claimed
that they had specific intelligence proving that Iraq was in possession of
weapons of mass destruction. For example, on October 7, 2002, the President
stated in a speech in Ohio: "The Iraqi regime ... possesses and produces
chemical and biological weapons. It is seeking nuclear weapons." The
President continued, "Satellite photographs reveal that Iraq is rebuilding
facilities at sites that have been part of its nuclear program in the past."
