>Bolton was wrong on Iraq
>he thought they had WMDs

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraq_and_weapons_of_mass_destruction#Post-war_discoveries_and_incidents

Actually WMD's were found in iraq

That is a pretty tremendous piece of misinformation that is still being pushed around

Nonetheless, in response to a question from committee member Curt Weldon, Col. Chui agreed that the munitions met the technical definition of weapons of mass destruction. "These are chemical weapons as defined under the Chemical Weapons Convention and yes, sir, they do constitute weapons of mass destruction."

The left's misinformation is so persistent it's honestly disturbing

heres the thing right

the Left comes from a place of caring and passion

thats their whole message, that people who suffer need be taken care of

however theres a problem

you know its a common trope that the best leaders are the ones that dont want to be one

people that are humble, and are aware of their flaws, would shy away from the prospect of leading people from a position of power

anyone that wants to be in power should be immediately suspect of having an inflated ego, narcissism, or will to abuse power

now for the Left's message, its incredibly easy for a psychopath to tout the message of caring and love

when really theyre using it as a method of getting into a position of power because they want everything to be handled their way

and because people are people, its not possible to know who are the liars

which is why i say what i say, If you want to empower a certain position, imagine someone you dont like having that position

and then think again

also with politicians, there are people that spend their lives in politics and law

so since they have an investment, its likely theyll use desperate tactics and lies and misinformation

when it comes to the Right, its more comfortable when you get told 'yeah its gunna suck in some ways'

more to the point, the context of the argument was always nuclear weapons

its more relatable and trusting, but also some people hate feeling like they have to do shit

colin powell paraded around a fake fucking jar of "yellow cake uranium" before congress for fucks sake

no more cakes for me

so excuse the fuck outta me if a retroactive clarification of what can be defined as "WMD" doesn't impress me

Bolton is a liar

Bolton didn't lie, and yellowcake uranium was found, which would be useful for creating dirty bombs

100,000 pounds were recovered

But the media made it about WMD's, when this was never really central to the invasion

The main problem was the fact the country was destabilizing, having for example released all the prisoner's, their GDP having dropped to around zero, and most the electricity and water being turned off

On top of threats of invasions on their neighbors and attempts to wipe out the kurds

That being said I'm not a huge fan of Bolton, it's just WMD's were found, and the massive amount of misinformation about them was largely a media lie

doesn't seem to bother us when Turks bomb kurds

Actually we have been more strict on Turkey, but a few attacks is different from open war

Turkey's entire argument is that they only go after terrorists, when they don't
