we didnt go into Iraq because they 'had' WMD's..... we went in there because we were told they were in posession of them right now...

Your logic is flawed.........as is the logic of everyone else who thinks this way.........because the Iraqi's had all the ELEMENTS to create WMD -- and because they had already assembled these elements in the past to create WMD and therefiore prove they had the capacity to rapidly develop these weapons -- then, by definition, THEY HAVE WMD......your logic is similar to not arresting someone who owns both a rocket as well as a nuclear warhead simply becaise they hadn't put the two together yet.......even if in the past they had put the two together and used them.
Another analogy for you to ponder: using heroine or cocaine is not illegal in the US, but BEING IN POSSESION OF IT is. Being in possesion of the technology to assemble WMD was against the UN mandates to Iraq......so no mattter how you look at it, they both had the technology and means to rapidly develop WMD -- and as a result -- by default -- this means they HAVE WMD..........
