So would have Saddam, Qusay and Uday 'smuggled' their asses out.





There is no logic in that statement.
Saddam and his sons may still have had a role to undertake within Iraq which they could not carry out from a foreign country. All indicators before the war pointed to Saddam going underground in his own country. The fact that Saddam was caught with a large amount of US currency tends to suggest that he was up to soemthing when he was caught.
WoMD had no role once the USA had got the country under military control. It would be far more convenient for the old regime to remove them from within Iraq if they existed - if they had been discovered it would have justified the invasion.
Therefore, the opposite to your statement is in fact more logical and you are the one making stupid comments.

As for the senators comments: he states that he was told that WoMD could be delivered to the East Coast by unmanned drones. If you remember back to the days before the war, Iraq was discovered to be actively working on a drone programme.

It should be noted that all though this drone is crude, Iraq had displayed some much more advanced prototypes at a military show the year before. They could have been mockups but it is questionable as to why they seemed to be so far in advance to the one that was declared to the UN. Bear in mind the fact that this was also one of the only weapons that Iraq eventually declared. It seems feasible that their drone program was far more advanced than they let on.
