Explain to us why the Iraqis deliberately produced a report that claimed they expended more weapons than they actually possessed?? (since you claim they don't even exist)... They, the Iraqis, believed they existed.. because they built them and were required to account for them to Saddam. But somehow, somewhere, they disappeared. POOF!! Into thin air... I don't claim they never existed. According to the Iraqi head of the weapons program many were destroyed in 1991, particularly the facilities. Then in 1995, under new pressure by inspectors, they destroyed the rest along with documents to keep the whole thing out of the inspector's hands. It was apparent to the Iraqi's by that time that chemical and bilogical weapons did not make sense against the U.S. or U.N. and that they continued to create trouble, in the form of prolonged sanctions, everytime some document showed up. So they got rid of them.
