Default cant say it any more

dose not matter how old. Old WMD kill just as well as new ones{how evr you define those terms}.

It was desghined to be shot from a artilery piece and the chemicals mix in flight to form the poinson, that did not happen the way ity wqs detinated so no real harm. Never mind its still a WMD{about a gallon of it} that was not suposed to be there, never mind the facilities to make the stuff, the precursers and all those 55 gallon drums under camoflage and in military facilities, never mind the musterd gas found....so on so forth.

This find confirms weapons inspector David Kay's case for war: "We know that terrorists were passing through Iraq," Kay told Congress "And now we know that there was little control over Iraq's weapons capabilities. I think it shows that Iraq was a very dangerous place. The country had the technology, the ability to produce, and there were terrorist groups passing through the country--and no central control."

It is now safe to conclude as well that Saddam bequeathed a frightening legacy to post-liberation Iraq: the Weapons of Mass Destruction still at large in Iraq. The alternative thesis – namely, that the only two WMDs left in the entire country were employed in the (fortunately) failed IED attacks involving sarin and mustard gas conducted in recent days – is preposterous on its face.Care to back up the idea there are none?After all, that was what saddam was asked to do.
