The Iraqis in their declaration claimed to have no illegal weapons: From AP:

In the declaration, Iraq asserts that it no longer has weapons of mass destruction or the means to deliver them.

They claimed to have destroyed them all, yet there were obvious omissions in the report - much that was unaccounted for.

Every weapon they have turned over since then was discovered by the inspectors, not volunteered. The missiles you cite were claimed not to be illegal, yet the UN says they were and only after pressure did they start to destroy these missiles.

They declared and turned over containers of mustard gas -- Show me a link or some proof of this claim - from a legitimate news source not one of your GWB hater sites. If true, it should be very easy.

The reality is that the mustard gas was "discovered" by the inspectors, not volunteered by the Iraqi's. It may be, that these weapons were "forgotten", but the were not declared as you claim.

about to provide documentation on biological weapons destruction

Uh, why did thy not do this in the first place? They certainly had plenty of time. Only after it was pointed out to the world that there original declaration was false did they move to do this. I will venture to say that the new document would simply be more lies. Saddam has demonstrated over and over that they lie.

They claimed not to have Scuds, yet they have fired them in recent days.

The only credibility problem at this point is you and your Iraqi friends.
