The real question is where did all the weapons of mass destruction (WMD) go? It is fact that Iraq under Saddam Hussein did posses and use WMD’s. Undeniable truth lies in Saddam's use of WMD’s most notably against the Iranians and the Kurds. So if it was a fact Saddam had WMD’s, where did they go? Did Saddam use them all up, did he destroy them, did he hide them, or did he give them away? That appears to be more important question.
Unfortunately Saddam brought this upon himself for using WMD’s. Because of that fact, Saddam was the target of UN inspectors that he was less than cooperative with and raised suspicion. Additionally it was bad timing on his part due to the September 11, 2001 attack against America. Back then a majority of Americans were out for revenge. Sadly many today are too cowardly to admit that and play the blame game to shirk off responsibility onto President Bush. No ones the blame except Saddam, and for that he was hung. Fortunately for the people of Iraq, their violent dictator is gone along with all the WMD’s. But then are the WMD’s really gone?
