Where are those WMD?
Front Mrs Elizabeth Morley Sir: 'If there are any weapons of mass destruction,' writes Boris Johnson (The fear, the squalor . . . and the hope', 3 May), 'the good news is that they will not be wielded by Saddam or any group of terrorists.'
How can you be so sure. Mr Johnson? Judging by the state of anarchy and chaos which you so scarily describe, is it not equally plausible that, like the museum treasures, the WMD will by now have been looted — possibly on the orders of sundry terrorist organisations — and are now safely in their hands? Which, I seem to remember, was one of the things that the invasion of Iraq was intended to prevent.
Come to think of it, wasn't it so lucky that none of those chemical weapon stocks — secretly stored in hidden locations, perhaps inside the palaces — was accidentally struck by the coalition bombing and dispersed into the environment? Elizabeth Morley Pontarfynach, Ceredigion
