No evidence Saddam will ever use WMD

He already has. Saddam's gassing of the Kurds in northern Iraq in 1988 was one of the largest chemical weapon attacks ever waged against a civilian population:

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (WOMENSENEWS) --Katrin Michael knows firsthand how devastating Saddam Hussein's chemical weapons can be. She survived an attack by bombs containing mustard gas and cyanide in June 1987 in the Kurdish region of Northern Iraq. Her village, Gali Zewa, was among the first of more than 250 villages attacked with Saddam's weapons in 1987 and 1988. Many friends died. She and most of the other survivors were blinded for several days, and she has had lasting lung, nerve and eye damage.

Here is another right wing org, Amnesty International:

"Such violations by the Iraqi military, intelligence and security personnel include the 1988 campaign against the Kurdish population using chemical weapons"

I suppose you'll say these are fake:

We, (the U.S.) bombed the crap out of Serbia for roughly the same crime - without UN sanction I might add. And where were you? Oh I can guess, you were one of the three guys protesting in front of the Whitehouse.
