"and had in his possesion reserves of poison gas;"

The above is a pretty good bet, you can call me al> (You can call me Bruce.) Hussein had used the stuff on the Kurdish population. That we know for fact. So, indeed he had WMDs. He was also working pon nuclear capability. That too is fact. He had a cyclotron way the hell out in the desert, and unless he was doing blood separation, the likelyhood is he was using it to do isotope separation. However, Hussein is gone now as are whatever WMDs might have been there. So the question remains: When will the US leave?
