"It was not real."
Iraq's arsenal was only on paper - since Gulf War, nonconventional weapons never got past the planning stage.
A review of available evidence, including some not known to coalition investigators and some they have not made public, portrays a nonconventional arms establishment that was far less capable than US analysts judged before the war. Leading figures in Iraqi science and industry, supported by observations on the ground, described factories and institutes that were thoroughly beaten down by 12 years of conflict, arms embargo and strangling economic sanctions. The remnants of Iraq's biological, chemical and missile infrastructures were riven by internal strife, bled by schemes for personal gain and handicapped by deceit up and down lines of command. The broad picture emerging from the investigation to date suggests that, whatever its desire, Iraq did not possess the wherewithal to build a forbidden armory on anything like the scale it had before the 1991 Persian Gulf War.
Oh, but we found a WMD - we pulled him out of a spiderhole!
Bite me.
I am so sick and tired of that pathetic attempt at spinning for Squinty McOilfield's lies. Not even to his own people was he a wmd, not like an Idi Amin was - as if any of those people ever gave a sh*t what Saddam did to the Iraqis.
For oil ... for power ... for 2004.
