If we wait for a smoking gun, this would mean we would be waiting for Saddam to use his biological or chemical or nuclear weapons. We do not want a "smoking gun", so we will prevent that from happening. Inappropriate term for the current situation.

We do not want a "smoking gun",...

Didn't they find some sort of undeclared weapon yesterday...not the casing; but the weapon itself? (Or did I imagine this?)

We don't need a smoking gun. Iraq is a smoking country.
