<<Frustrated, U.S. Arms Team to Leave Iraq
Task Force Unable To Find Any Weapons>>
One of the remarkable things about this article (aside from the fact that apparently few people in the US appear to even care at this point if WMDs are found or not) is that no one comments on the fact that they apparently haven't even found traces of WMDs, much less the WMDs themselves. When the Bush admin was criticizing the UN weapons inspectors and the Iraqi paperwork on WMDs, they were claiming that even if Iraq had destroyed the WMDs that the Bush admin was so convinced existed, there would be traces of the destroyed weapons, proof that they had existed at some point in time. The fact that Iraq couldn't point to such proof was used as evidence that they hadn't been destroyed and so still existed.

Nevermind. Mission accomplished. We won. What a country.
