You're right, America never lied about WMD. Our neo-fascist administration did. Argue against that to your own peril. It's pretty well documented at this point and others of a more recognized and respected ilk have made the case better than I ever could...====================================If you consider that America are able to lie about the weapons of mass destruction and then admit it,==================================== "America" never lied about WMD. America is not in a position to prove that any WMD stockpilesexisted past December of 1998, when Saddam kicked out the UN; but at worst that makes them wrong, not liars.
Technicality: perhaps not in the military, but many doctors and chemists consider tear gas to be a nerve agent as it does have some of the effects of nerve agents, just not the extreme effects we think about when we think about chemical weapon WMDs. But there are many cases where exposure to tear gas has caused long-lasting, sometimes lifelong, effects on the nervous system.=====================================use chemical weapons in Iraq and lie about it and then admit it===================================== America did not use Nerve Agents or Blister Agents in Iraq. Nerve Agents and Blister Agents are "Chemical Waepons". Smoke Generators and tear gas are not. Unless of course you are seeking to redefine the word to fit a political agenda.
I think you two are using different definitions for Chemical Weapons, perhaps.
