Of course Saddam had the gas - and used it too!
So why didn't we find it?

Because he shipped it out to Syria before. Back then long lines of trucks were reported to leave Iraq crossing the boarder to Syria. Guess what they transported.... couscous?...

"Syrian journalist and human rights activist Nizar Nayouf told the Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf in 2004 that Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein smuggled his arsenal of chemical and biological weapons into Syria just prior to the United States’ invasion of Iraq in 2003. In the interview, Nayouf claimed that Iraqi weapons of mass destruction were stashed in three separate sites in Syria, including an underground military base beneath the village of AlBaida, one kilometer south of Masyaf. Nayouf was imprisoned by Syrian authorities for 10 years. … Similar accusations of Iraqi weapons smuggling into Syria were made by then-prime minister Ariel Sharon during an interview with Channel 2 news. Former Israel Defense Forces chief of staff Moshe Ya’alon made similar claims in an interview with the now-defunct New York Sun. Even the Pentagon acknowledged a credible source providing sound evidence that 50 trucks did indeed make this trek out of Iraq to Syria and that these trucks were of a company owned by Uday Hussein."

>Because we hadn't invaded his country yet. You seem to be confused about the time line. The UN inspectors were in the country looking for WMD prior to our military action against him. That's why he hid them.

I'm not. If he was so powerful and thought he could stand toe-to-toe with other countries, why would he care what the UN found?
