    We all know that none of them were found in iraq but there are reports that sadam gased his own people.

    Are those reports bogus?

    If they did have WMDs where did they go?

    Are they in terrorists' hands?

    I am guessing the best person to answer this would be a Kurdish person with experience in such matters

    Have you been in a cave for 3 years?

    This is old news. We are working on Iran's nuclear weapons program now.

    I don't believe I have the right to judge.

    My partners brother served in Iraq as an officer and relates stories of playing football with Iraqi children, and similar, and they we're quite happy in the military presence there and obviously had no animosity towards the troops.

    As for WOMD, I am not sure as I don't truly know what this defines.

    Are chemical weapons weapons of mass destruction or are we here focused on weapons of the Nuclear type?

    We have to bear in mind that between Iraq, Iran and Israel and surrounding areas we are dealing with some of the most anciently clever military regimes.

    For example "Chess" was a game for "Persian" (now Iranian) officers, much like the boardgames I was given as a child by my grandfather to learn military planing and strategies, so whether WOMD we're found or not or whether they existed is likely a very complex thing and not something to be taken at face value given all the variables and complex histories involved.

    Could you please enlighten us all on this and how being forced into getting involved exactly is an issue of the US seeking nothing but profit?

    Some may be doing so and quite honestly I reckon it's more a thing that involves crazy religious zealots from various sides, but I doubt the US, considering it's historical fight against such things is where the problem lays.

    You may want to look at things closer to home and things corrupting the likes of the US and pretty much everywhere given their sway b4 accusing the general pupulance in a Country tbh...

    There are a lot of Americans who are angry we aren't pumping oil out of Iraq. Since we aren't taking oil, where exactly is this income that you are referring to?

    not just Kurds, many Iranian soldier killed by chemicals during Iran-Iraq war but no any reaction by UN or social glob happened. also many Iranian Kurds effected by Chemicals on that time. just in Halabcheh a Kurdish city in west of Iraq more than 5 thousands Kurds killed by Sadam Chemicals in 1986 but no any country or UN criticized Sadam for it! yeah Sadam Killed a lot of Iraqi but seems nobody knew it until 2004!!!

    when Sadam Army destroyed by USA, he forced to eliminate his Chemicals and he did it but scared to confirm that! he told why didn't confirm it, he didn't want Iranian know that he hasn't any Chemical bomb! he said it himself.
    western countries gave it him and knew how much he had but he destroyed them without notification! love such neglect! lol

    If Saddam didn't have WMDs, he definitely wanted them. Iraq had already invaded once by Bush I, and Clinton's military involvement and constant bombing certainly constituted a second Iraq war.

    You'd be foolish to assume that Saddam wouldn't want to take steps to guarantee that Iraq wold never be invaded again. Possessing a nuke would guarantee that.

    I remember a CBS 60 Minutes episode that showed how Saddam's troops would stop UN inspectors from entering Iraqi's sprawling weapons facilities until Iraqis had driven huge tractor trailer trucks out the back. What was in those trucks, I wonder?

    If Saddam DID have a nuke and if American troops found it, it's a given that the USA would have needed to keep it's discovery secret.

    about them chemical weapons saddam had...guess where he go them from? *cough cough USA cough* LOL

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saddam_Hussein#Iran.E2.80.93Iraq_War

    With the support of the Arab states, the United States, the Soviet Union, and Europe, and heavily financed by the Arab states of the Persian Gulf, Saddam Hussein had become "the defender of the Arab world" against a revolutionary Iran. Consequently, many viewed Iraq as "an agent of the civilized world".[36] The blatant disregard of international law and violations of international borders were ignored. Instead Iraq received economic and military support from its allies, who conveniently overlooked Saddam's use of chemical warfare against the Kurds and the Iranians and Iraq's efforts to develop nuclear weapons.

    "an agent of the civilized world" LOL @ how the USA changes its mind all the time

    as for the nukes they are deep inside george bushes imagination LOL you really think the US mercenary army has the balls to attack somebody with nukes? AHAHAHAHAHA can you say north korea? LOL

    it's so sad for me when see on that time "1980" when Sadam invaded us, we had democracy but Iraqi hadn't and that war cased Iran lost it's democracy. Ironic is all the world helped Sadam from Arabic countries to Soviet union, USA, France, England and so on. Just Israel sent us some ammunition and also destroyed Iraq atomic site! lol

    So why no love for Israel now? Interesting that we sold weapons to Iran at the same time.

    that war ended and middle east changed deeply. Now Mullahs love to pretend are in frontline against Israel but Iranian people never forget that time when Palestinians fought for Sadam against Iran.

    I believe that Saddam … had the intentions of building mass distraction weapons.

    And had started in different areas, when he realized that he would be found out, and penalized, he got rid of all the abundance.

    But he was truly a man that would not care about harming his own people, as we can see with the Kurdish population.
    They were gassed and thousands died

    The world is a better place and Saddam in it is in a very hot environment.

    Cheers … Ron
