You make a good point Lurker. Many deadly items can be made from everyday items. But, you still have to have that small chemical plant to make ricin, and such things as LAWS and rocket grenades require sophisticated facilities. Whether Saddam has sold supplies to terrorists will hopefully be discovered when we take Baghdad.
I read somewhere a couple of weeks ago that one of the captured Al Qaeda operatives that we have captured spoke of being trained in either Iraq or Iran. I don't recall which. The fact that Saddam rules a secular state would not deter the Islamists from using his facilities and goods. After all, they trained for 9/11 in the US.
