If Saddam had weapons of mass destruction (I love how the warmongers use phrased guaranteed to scare people into supporting war.), he would have most likely used them on his arch enemy, Iran. Saddam was no worse than any other tyrant. How about the little nut in N. Korea?

I think it's pretty well known knowledge that he used them before. Including gassing a bunch of Kurds during an uprising? And sure, he may not have been much worse than many other tyrants (and much better than several), but that has no bearing on the fact that he used this stuff in war.
