Russian convoy fired on in Iraq

That is an original article from CNN.
AFAIK Russian convoy was six Grand Cherokees. Three people were wounded.
Isn’t it too tricky to move a WMD program this way?
By the time Iraq War #2 was just a few months away, Saddam's massive WMD program was in shambles. We bombed facilities during Gulf War 1 and the UN spent years destroying tons of WMD products after War #1. All that was left officially prior to Gulf War 2, was the WMD that Saddam had reported possessing that the UN had not documented being destroyed. And of course whatever Saddam had never reported possessing. For example - He never reported his secret nuclear program in Libya that Gaddafi gave up. So what was left, could have been taken out in a few truck convoys. The rest was just scattered remains that US troops discovered. They reported those discoveries and UNSCOM came in to clean them up. What UNSCOM found, was never used to determine if all had been destroyed prior to Gulf War 2. Thus, the left believed a lie hatched from the UN. No WMD found.
Now UN/NATO finds itself in a horrific position. They have promoted an invasion of Syria, knowing full well the vast quantities of WMD that Assad has under his control. What was horrific is that Assad could launch WMD at Turkish and Jordanian cities at will. He just announced he will do that if invaded. The UN/NATO policy would have and still can kill thousands of citizens horrifically.
