What, No WMD?

This week, the White House announced that the two year search for weapons of mass destruction (WMD) in Iraq had ended, and it acknowledged that no such weapons existed there at the time of the U.S. invasion in 2003. Obviously, this is no surprise. PNAM feels that the excuse of WMD to take control of Iraq, while possibly necessary at the time to convince a majority of Americans that military force was warranted, must now make way to the truth. The Bush administration knew full well Saddam Hussein's weapons programs were a thing of the past, and only used this ruse as a way to establish military bases in Iraq to control the oil fields and pose a reminder to other anti-U.S. regimes in the region. Today, president Bush said in an interview with Barbara Walters that he would have invaded Iraq regardless of whether there was WMD. Of course we should have, because it was never about WMD.

PNAM feels it is very unfortunate that Bush and team felt the need to justify America's rightful ownership of Iraq in this manner. But then was then, and now is now. The 2004 election that brought God's choice, George W. Bush, to serve another four years, made it clear that the American people have given Bush a mandate to spread American culture and moral values around the globe. Bush no longer needs to use excuses like WMD to justify the invasion of countries that resist the American way of life.

We've heard of families of lost U.S. service men and women lamenting about this WMD news. This is wrong. Their sons and daughters have done a great, great service to the United States of America by leading the way to American domination in the world. We owe no explanations. George Bush is God's chosen president, and with him as Commander in Chief the goal of a Christian/American world is closer than ever.
