Most countries may have WMD's. That is a fact. You also have to remember that Iraq was under sanctions and was suppose to have NO WMD's. They claimed they didn't. Obviously they lied.

The media did sensationalize what WMD's we thought they had. The truth is we knew they were starting a nuclear program. I don't think anyone in power thought they would have hundreds of nukes but we definetly thought they were on their way to having some. All it takes is one to cause a catastrophe. Not to mention the different chemicals that Saddam was notorius for using have been found. Those are WMD's as well. I think because of the media most people think WMD's are just nukes but WMD's come in lots of forms.
