Nope. The question was about bomb parts left behind from an attack. There are parts that aren't destroyed, and the investigators can use them to track down who set it off.

And I said yeah, that's what they do to identify common types of explosives. Are you going to prove common types of explosives were used, or MUST have been used? Or are you just simply going to assert it, like you assert all kinds of ridiculous BS, and not back it up with anything?

If something like that happened this minute, of course I'd fight. Just like everyone else. Except maybe you.
But guess what, genius. That wasn't the case in Iraq. How long was Saddam breaking one UN resolution after another? How many chances was he given to make nice with everyone? How many times was the "no fly zone" breached??

All I said (if you actually took the time to read the post) was that investigators can find out all sorts of info from the remains of the devices after an explosion.
Did they do this during 9/11? Probably. Makes sense. Do I have some spectacular internet source to prove this? Nope, and I don't care.

Yeah, everyone except me. What a big, tough, macho man you are. I notice it really gets your rocks off talking like a big man, huh? Is that why you signed up for the military? To show everybody what a callous, "brave" man you are?

Guess what? The UN didn't go to war with Iraq!
You going to reformulate that excuse or just fly with it?
Is the US the sole enforcer of UN policy now? Is that how that works? When not even the UN is trying to go to war with Saddam.

If breaching international contract justified war, then that's the UN's call since it was their resolutions and laws. We went to the UN, remember? We tried to sell them all that BS. They didn't buy it. We said they were making MORE weapons of mass destruction, NEW ones. They weren't. You don't remember any of that?

Well now that you've said your piece, and rested it upon an unsupported "probably," you can go now.

Well, you seem to be the one with the complex, not me. What happened, get turned down when you tried to enlist? That's OK, Wee Man. It's not a life for everyone. The world needs ditch diggers.
Hmmm....don't see the UN putting sanctions on the US for being in Iraq
And is the US the enforcer of UN policy? Well, it sure seems like it now, doesn't it? Anytime something happens, the UN seems to want the US military involved in some level. Getting pretty old, if you ask me.

Nevermind. You obvious have problems reading and understanding. Genius.

Well, I don't know. I kinda like it here.

Haha, don't you guys dig ditches, too? I was always told the military was for drop-outs anyway. I went to college.

That doesn't change the fact that the war in Iraq isn't an enforcement of UN policy, because the UN isn't enforcing anything.
Originally posted by bsbray11
Not old enough, considering the US is going out of its war to start wars even when the UN doesn't want them, and here you are fighting them. Yeah, I can tell it's really getting on your nerves.

No one looked for explosives residue at the WTC.

It's fine with me if you waste all the thread space in the world, I just thought since you weren't going to offer any evidence, just a "probably," that your "work" here was pretty much done anyway.
Originally posted by jerico65
I know. How many resolutions did Saddam break?
The UN doesn't enforce anything. I don't think they could enforce parking policy at their own building.
If the UN actually did something constructive in this world, maybe there won't be any wars.

Really? Prove it. I mean, dig up some cool websites that show this. I'd be interested to read that.
12. Did the NIST investigation look for evidence of the WTC towers being brought down by controlled demolition? Was the steel tested for explosives or thermite residues? The combination of thermite and sulfur (called thermate) "slices through steel like a hot knife through butter."
NIST did not test for the residue of these compounds in the steel.
Shucks, I'm sorry. I didn't know before posting in the 9/11 forum that you needed some moonbat, tinfoil hat wearing website full of "facts" to join this party.

Hey, where's Swampy? Still out "fixing F-16s?" Someone should tell him that he forgot to respond to my posts about who sold Saddam his "weapons of mass destruction."
A good professional debunker always responds to all posts, no matter what ridiculous explanation is required.
No. The crap is clearly coming from you. There is a reason that these supposed weapons were never actually considered a threat to anyone.
Tell me something, do you know how old these weapons were?
Do you know how effective they actually were?
Basically you are saying he did have WMDs even though they would not do mass destruction and could barely be used as a weapon. Desperate much?
Latest Update: Pentagon official further confirms munitions can "not be fired as designed." Earlier update: Pentagon says Iraq's 'WMDS' are too old to use.
But hey, who is the Pentagon to decide if these weapons are still weapons. Some people on a UFO forum say there were still weapons so that makes it ok that my friends died in the desert.
The links were bad, i need to find the correct ones, unless someone can just prove me wrong in the meantime. I would accept that.
and...
While a small number of old, abandoned chemical munitions have been discovered, ISG judges that Iraq unilaterally destroyed its undeclared chemical weapons stockpile in 1991. There are no credible Indications that Baghdad resumed production of chemical munitions thereafter, a policy ISG attributes to Baghdad’s desire to see sanctions lifted, or rendered ineffectual, or its fear of force against it should WMD be discovered.
The chief weapons inspector, Charles Duelfer, has now issued a comprehensive report that confirms the earlier conclusion of David Kay that Iraq did not have the weapons that our intelligence believed were there.
you are the one peddling crap once again
I should have known, you think the entire US military was in on it...........
I will gladly bow out of this thread with my head down now that I know that Saddam was going to blow up America with muster gas.
Umm, no, but then we werent going to take the chance that Saddam might start selling his WMDs to terrorists after 9/11 either.
