Novus,

A correction is warranted here. The Americans didn't fall for any lie, the Americans believed he had WMD because they themsleves provided them, thats why they were hell bent on it.

The reason Saddam had all these weapons was because of their war with iran that the Americans wanted to destroy and hence were helping Saddam. What they didn't anticipate was that he would turn on them like Bin laden did since he was also well funded by the CIA. Thats your country mate, if fucks up every other country then tries to go in a heros.

saddam was too clever for them than to get caught with his pants down and subsequently disposed of the said weapons, which is why you didn't find any. Catch my drift????

OK moving on.

Apollo 11 was the first manned mission to land on the Moon on 20th July 1969.

The lunar module "Eagle", separated from the command module "Columbia" and after a shaky course, landed in the Sea of Tranquility crater.

"We came in peace for all Mankind"

I for one believe this one. :D


Did they take any weapons with them?????? :?

Thanks for the history lesson, but I already knew all this.

The lie was that he still had WMD. His stockpiles and capabilities were destroyed a lot much earlier on, but we were told he was making more, had the capability to make more and new types, and that he still had them. Those were all lies many of us fell for.

The Russian Cosmonauts carry a handgun on their space flights, but NASA astronauts do not. I think the only "weapon" they will have had were utility knives.
