According to the Washington Post...

And Bob Woodward to boot, a paragon of objective journalism...

BTW what would be a proof in your eyes? Even the aforementioned hypthetical video I can not come up with probably would not be a proof for you because it may be a fake.
I think in your eyes it only would be a proof for the US helping the iraqi WMD program if the president would say exactly this in an official statement.

No, I told you I don't think politicians know anything other than how to get elected.

I'm kind of an adherent to the idea that claims need to be backed with evidence, not conjecture. It is not evidence to cite Bob Woodward's conjecture. It would be evidence for Bob Woodward to divulge the CIA operative who admitted that this is what happened.

But, I am one who believes that the CIA probably did help Saddam target the Iranians during that war, and I even fault the WORLD at that time for not recognizing the dangers of Iraq's use of chemical weapons. So, now how exactly did the US help Iraq build its WMD capabilites?
