US wraps up WMD search in Iraq
Wrapping up its nearly two-year search for weapons of mass destruction (WMD) in Iraq, the US� Iraq Survey Group (ISG) led by Charles A. Duelfer has returned home. The ISG, composed of 1,700 personnel, was commissioned by the US in May 2003 to search for WMD in Iraq.
The end of the search for WMD proves the flimsy basis of the US� war on, and occupation of, Iraq. It proves that supposed US intelligence data that Saddam Hussein harbored nuclear, chemical and biological weapons were a mere pretext to plunder Iraq�s oil.
Despite the failure to find any WMD in Iraq, Bush stubbornly insists on the correctness of the US invasion.
It was October last year when Duelfer issued a report stating that Iraq had no WMD when the US bombed the country in March 2003. In January 2004, former ISG head David Kay resigned, declaring that there were no WMD in Iraq.
