Well, for starters, we do know that Saddam at one time used poison gas on
both Iranian soldiers and on his own people.  We know that he had the
capacity to produce more and we now know that the equipment to do this was
evacuated to Syria where it is still located.  We discovered small stocks
of chemical and biological weapons though nothing on the order of what we
expected to find.  We also discovered munitions suitable for devlivering
such weapons.

And now there are the tapes which surfaced recently which cover a
discussion between Sadaam and his top aides over the use of such weapons
and discussing how the weapons inspectors were being misled and deceived.  

I am no fan of the Iraq War but I do acknowledge that Sadaam was a
troubling and destabilizing force in the region with a technical ability to
obtain and employ chemical and biological weapons and to possibly develop
nuclear weapons.
