The New York Times finally admitted that Iraq had Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMDs). This story is about something that happened in 2008, six years after Obama first ran against basically Bush and no WMDs. Funny how it comes out now. Probably in an effort to help Hillary Clinton who, as Senator voted for the Iraq war. In fact, despite the left’s claims of no WMDs in Iraq, the Slimes is reporting that:

The specialist swabbed the shell with chemical detection paper. It turned red — indicating sulfur mustard, the chemical warfare agent designed to burn a victim’s airway, skin and eyes.

So in 2008, Iraq had sulfur mustard gas for chemical warfare, yet there were no WMDs right?
Now don’t get me wrong. I was not for the Iraq war in the first. But I always supported the troops and their ultimate mission. When leftists and their enablers in the media crowed about no WMDs, I suppose I had to believe them. Now, they have egg on their faces and it will be fun to watch them spin this.
Of course, most of these WMDs ended up in Syria, with Bashir Al-Assad. Now, ISIS has some. They’ve used chemical weapons against the Kurds already. Spin away lefties.
