Nobody seriously still believes there were WMD at the time of our second invasion. Do they? At the time of our second invasion, or at the time the decision to invade was initially made? There's a significant difference. Maybe not (but even then, maybe) at the time of the actual invasion -- Saddam had plenty of warning of that -- but at the time leading up to the decision? I think a numnber of people do still believe he still had stockpiles of WMD then. We know he had had them and had used them. What to you think happened to those stockpiles? They just vanished into thin air? And if he didn't have any at the time of the UN inspections, why do you think he played such games with them? Just to make people think he still had them when he had actually destroyed them? There is a lot about Saddam's WMD program that we still don't know and may never know. But there are some realities (like him not only having the capacity and desire to make them but having actually made and used them), and I don't for a minute believe that we know what actually happened to those weapons and to the facilities that originally made them. If you think you know the answers to those questions, what are they?
