AlphaPatriot has an excellent summary posting about what the United Nations itself recently said about Saddam and WMDs.

And here is a post about what Afghanis and Iraqis think about how things are going in their countries. Seems they are more optimistic about their futures than Americans are. Among other findings: In Afghanistan:

Sixty-four percent of people thought the country was heading in the right direction, with just 11 percent saying it was going the wrong way. …

In Iraq, an independent polling firm found:

73% approve of new Prime Minister Ayad Allawi, who says he wants to crush the insurgents and foreign terrorists disturbing the peace of his country. …

Things are going much better in the two countries than is being reported here in the States. But you knew that.
