Actually its not as funny as you might think, currently the US House Intelligence Committee is analyzing over thousands of pages of Iraqi documents regarding WMD’s.
They're not saying much so far because the investigation is still not over, however what they have said makes me think those WMD’s may turn out to be more real then we currently think.

Between March and July 2003, Mr. Gaubatz was taken by these sources to four locations - three in and around Nasiriyah and one near the port of Umm Qasr, where he was shown underground concrete bunkers with the tunnels leading to them deliberately flooded. In each case, he was told the facilities contained stocks of biological and chemical weapons, along with missiles whose range exceeded that mandated under U.N. sanctions. But because the facilities were sealed off with concrete walls, in some cases up to 5 feet thick, he did not get inside. He filed reports with photographs, exact grid coordinates, and testimony from multiple sources. And then he waited for the Iraq Survey Group to come to the sites. But in all but one case, they never arrived.

C'mon WP, how much time does a gov't, not the military, need to do this? More than 3 years? I would have thought that it would have been much less with the sattelite tech available.

And biggest load of # ever written, no evidence at all to support this, just some crackpot who was paid money by the US gov.....hardly something difficult for them to do.
For dirty deals done with Saddam Hussein, France and Russia may take the cake — but that's just the beginning.
The Pentagon is investigating reports that Iraqi weapons are being sent covertly to Syria and that they are fueling anti-U.S. insurgents training there, The Washington Times has learned.
Ha'aretz (www.haaretzdaily.com) reports that Syria is violating the UN arms embargo on Iraq. Syria has apparently purchased tank engines, Mig parts, and other weapons, and has secretely delivered it all to Iraq.
A senior Syrian journalist reports Iraq WMD located in three Syrian sites
Nizar Nayuf (Nayyouf-Nayyuf), a Syrian journalist who recently defected from Syria to Western Europe and is known for bravely challenging the Syrian regime, said in a letter Monday, January 5,
WASHINGTON, Oct. 29 (UPI) -- U.S. intelligence officials Wednesday released an assessment that Iraqi weapons of mass destruction have been transferred to neighboring Syria
The man who served as the no. 2 official in Saddam Hussein's air force says Iraq moved weapons of mass destruction into Syria before the war by loading the weapons into civilian aircraft in which the passenger seats were removed.
U.S. intelligence agencies have obtained satellite photographs of truck convoys that were at several weapons sites in Iraq in the weeks before U.S. military operations were launched, defense officials said yesterday.
Open sources report that there are at least three Syrian facilities currently engaged in producing Chemical Weapons, located near Damascus, Hama, and Safira village (in the Aleppo area).

What can I say, you should apply for a job there than, and show them how really good jobs are donne!! Serioulsy, on what grounds do you stand to make a statement like that ? Have you worked in any situation like that before ? thats like telling a dairy farmer " you know... those cows can be milked alot faster"

That's a pretty limp arguement. With the billions of dollars worth of hardware up there, they would be able to see a guy trying to tell a dairy farmer that "those cows could be milked faster." I'm sure WMD are a lot bigger than that......... and trackable.

BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- As U.N. weapons inspections in Iraq entered a new level Thursday, one team discovered empty chemical warheads and international officials began talking tougher about Iraq's responsibility to be more forthcoming about its disarmament efforts in order to avoid a possible military confrontation.
In another milestone Thursday, U.N. inspectors paid their first-ever visit to the private homes of Iraqi scientists as part of the hunt for evidence of weapons of mass destruction. The homes were not listed as declared sites by Iraq, suggesting that inspectors may be working on an intelligence tip. (Full Story, On the scene)
About 150 kilometers (93 miles) southwest of Baghdad, another team of arms inspectors found 11 empty chemical warheads and another one that needed further evaluation at the Ukhaider ammunition storage area, according to a U.N. spokesman, who said they were all in "excellent condition."
BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- Iraqi officials said they have found four more empty chemical warheads similar to 12 others found last week, the U.N.'s chief weapons inspector said Sunday.
Hans Blix, in Baghdad with top nuclear weapons inspector Mohamed ElBaradei, said on CNN's "Late Edition" that the 12 empty warheads were on the agenda for talks Sunday with Iraqi officials.
"They said they had been surprised themselves" about finding the empty warheads, Blix said. "They were in boxes, never opened -- there were bird droppings on them. But of course they should have been declared and destroyed."
The discovery of four more such warheads -- and the potential to discover more -- raise the question of whether they are "remnants of the past [or] the tip of an iceberg," Blix said.
