They sure are finding a lot of chemical suits and atropine for there to be no chemical weapons, I think.

There was a big question about the sale of atropine to Iraq. This was way before the war started. They knew we would not use chemical weapons so there are only a couple of conclusions.

1. They were going to attack or provoke a neighbor or kill more of their own en masse.

2. They anticipated that the UN would eventually have a force come in and if any of the WMD sites were hit, they would be prepared.

3. They intended to use them but the field commanders became impotent (internal revolt by the RG) early on with the death of Saddam and other major players.
