What DeLay Left Out of His "Iraq by the Numbers"
House Majority Leader Tom DeLay put out the following press release on 10/16: Iraq By the Numbers Here is what was known about Iraq based on its own admissions: 3.9 -- Number of tons of VX nerve gas Iraq produced in the years immediately prior to the first Gulf War 25 -- Number of missile warheads containing germ agents (anthrax, aflatoxin, and botulinum) Iraq produced 157 -- Number of aerial bombs Iraq produced that were filled with germ agents 500 -- Number of bombs Iraq had fitted with parachutes for the purpose of delivering poison gas or germ payloads 550 -- Number of artillery shells Iraq had filled with mustard gas 805 -- Number of tons of ingredients for the production of more VX 4,000 -- Number of tons of ingredients to produce certain types of poison gas Saddam produced or imported 8,500 -- Number of liters of anthrax Saddam produced 107,500 -- Number of casings for chemical weapons Iraq had produced or imported (Robert Kagan, William Kristol, Weekly Standard, October 10, 2003) 0 -- Number of Americans made safer by Ted Kennedy and the Democrats' weak and indecisive foreign policy 9 -- Number of presidential candidates who will pathetically claim DeLay is questioning their patriotism However, this is what DeLay left out: 0 -- number of WMDs Iraq claimed it had after destroying its stockpiles 0 -- Number of WMDs discovered by UN inspectors 0 -- tons of VX nerve gas discovered 0 -- number of bombs fills with germ agents discovered 0 -- number of missiles filled with poison gas discovered 0 -- number of artillery shells filled with mustard gas discovered 0 -- number of tons of VX ingredients discovered 0 -- number of liters of Anthrax discovered 0 -- number of Bush's prewar claims proven true 0 -- number of Americans made safer by invading Iraq ("war in Iraq has probably inflamed radical passions among Muslims and thus increased al Qaeda's recruiting power and morale..."
