Some are still in Iraq, one arsenal is over 50 square miles and it's slow going because of booby traps. Some went to Syria, a barge full were sunk in the Tigris River.

Maybe Saddam left them under his pillow and the tooth fairy took them?

Are you one of those that believes he has espn? What else do you "believe" that doesn't need much in the way of facts for support?

<"They used the thinnest sources to justify the grandest conclusions about weapons of mass destruction and other activity in Iraq," Sen. Richard Durbin (news, bio, voting record), an Illinois Democrat on the panel, told Reuters.

The main U.S. justification for going to war against Iraq was the view that Baghdad posed a threat due to stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons and was attempting to develop nuclear weapons. No large stockpiles of banned weapons have been found since the U.S. invasion last year.

Sen. Evan Bayh (news, bio, voting record), a Democrat from Indiana, said flawed intelligence resulted from a pre-existing belief that Iraq had banned weapons, pressure to reach conclusions in the face of ambiguity, and that all doubts were resolved in favor of the pre-existing beliefs.>
