"They were old munitions left over from the Iran-Iraq war."

"Pure speculation. If the UN Weapons inspectors had been given the time to do their job and the UN had the chance to act, things may have worked out differently"

You contradict yourself- HOW could they be old munitions, if the inspectors were doiung the job?

"And the Americans should know - they have more than anyone else (chemical, biological and nuclear)."

And all of the US WMD are (probably) at least 12 years old, so I guess you can't count them...

You seem to be tripping over your own "Pure speculation"
