> Technically there were still WMDs in Iraq No: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraq_and_weapons_of_mass_destr...

"After the U.S. formally agreed in 1997 to destroy its 30,000-ton chemical arsenal, Newport's mission changed again" ... "Not until 2008 — 11 years after our visit and U.S. ratification of the chemical weapons ban—was the last of the VX eliminated." |
