George and Tony seem to got themselves into a bit of a pickle over the apparaent absence of Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq.
Assuming that they decide that its too risky to actually covertly ship in their own WMD's and subsequently discover them, surely their spin doctors could convince the world that it actually mis-construed their original justification for war and that the real threat was always posed by Weapons of Mass Construction.
How difficult could it be to find the odd "Al Samoud 2" cement mixer with some sharp edges or some heavy duty scaffolding that could pass for makeshift pipe bombs?
