Lovely to see you here again, Teresa.

I was, of course, quoting the last very political Faithless song.

However, I would argue that the people of Iraq might easily suggest that such pieces of misinformation as “Saddam is trying to buy the material to build nuclear weapons” or “Iraq was behind 9-11″ could easily be considered weapons of mass destruction.

Misinformation is not a weapon of mass destruction. It neither irradiates us nor infects us with plague nor blows us to smithereens. We meet with it every day, and we survive.

I would also note that misinformation is a weapon of mass destruction.
