My guess is that this is 'sorta' aimed at me. Or at least my apparently slightly misunderstood earlier post. I never once said that Bush knew there were no WMDs. I was just speculating on one reason why Syria may not be seen by Bush as a necessary target. If he knew there were no WMDs to move, it would answer why the U.S. is not worried about Syria. I agree with you in that if he thinks Syria is loaded up with WMDs, he ought to be pumping up the hype. He's not. Can you think of a better explanation?
