The testimony before the Senate last summer said that Saddam had the equipment to make and bomb, and the scientists, but lacked the weapons-grade uranium. How long he would take to get it would depend on who would sell it to him. They are looking for the scientists, what more are you asking for?

Anybody can testify to anything, especially if they say what powerful people want to hear. Some confirmation would be nice to see. Where is this equipment?

Shipped to Syria, no doubt.

Maybe they will find something. I sure as hell hope they do, because we are going to look pretty lame if nothing emerges.

It's a bit discomforting to see the lack of progress in finding the WMD, partly because those who believed that there really was nothing to find will find ammunition to support their contention, and partly because of the possibility that if the stuff really was buried out in the desert, somebody else might have already dug it up.

We talked about this before: once war was inevitable, Saddam would have no further incentive to refrain from providing these weapons to terrorists. This may have happened: if he could get them to Syria, he could get them to Al Qaeda.
