I think if he were inclined to use them, he would have already. Remember, he's a baaaad man, bent on world domination like Hitler or Stalin...hell, he hasn't even conquered the region.

Why hasn't he used them yet (he's had them at least since the Gulf War)? Why hasn't he blasted Israel, sworn enemy of Islam (even though he is not an Islamic fundamentalist)? Why not Kuwait? Americans have had troops over there for twelve years, why hasn't he used them against the Americans?

There are only two explanations: that he either does not have them (and I'm sure he does); or that he is not inclined to use them unless threatened.

He IS a BAD person. He loves to torture people. He has used chemical weapons on citizens of his own country. etc. However, you reach too far. I do not think he is bent on world domination, just regional domination and furthering Arab control and domination.
He has not conquered the region because he has been slapped back whenever he tries (and he has tried). Remember Kuwait. Remember Isreal demolishing his nuclear plant.

Well he has had some weapons and he has been trying to develop others. He HAS USED chemical weapons against Iran and against the Kurds. Nuclear development has been stopped by (1) Isreal's attack, (2) the Gulf War, (3) the Inspections etc.

No, there is another explanation. The circumstances have not yet been right for him to use them to either achieve a great enough effect, or to use them in a way that can not been traced easily back to him (like developing a weapon that could be spun off and actually set off by a terorist organization.
