LMAO!!! Do you recall all the time dithered away at the U.N., making the case for the Iraq invasion? Colin Powell's PowerPoint presentations? The satellite photos of convoys leaving Iraq for Syria, presumably transporting WMD out of the country? It was *all* about Saddam's possessing WMD. Present tense.
Are you seriously claiming that the GWB administration was trying to garner international support for the Iraq invasion on the basis of "Saddam might maybe someday in the future develop WMD for terrorists after the sanctions are lifted"? If so, your memory is clearly faulty.
Of course I remember that the media and liberals made a huge political issue out of Saddam having MDs. But again, the real problem behind the scenes was not whether he had them. It was whether, even if he didn’t have any at the time, would he get the opportunity to make them again. And the answer to that question was definitely yes. There was a very widespread and stromng movement to have the sanctions against Iraq lifted that would have allowed Saddam carte blanch to again manufacture tham and then distribute as he pleased.
