FYI, the U.S. never gave Iraq chemical or biological weapons. Unfortunately, the U.S. did allow the purchase of materials and other supplies to buildup their anthrax and botulinum programs. The chemicals were manufactured wholly by the Iraqi government in numerous know facilities. After the war, many of these known facilities still housed CBW so hot that we turned a blind eye after many of us starting getting strange illnesses. The Iraqi government was left to handle it, and they chose to bury or let them be. There were still facilities unexplored that pop-up in the news even today thanks to ISIS. Search al-Muthanna, Abu Ghraib, al Taji , and Fallujah to name a few places. Look up MOD's cleanup agreement. Heck, feel free to search the CIA library. This doesn't include the huge nuclear program they had started.

I didn't say we gave them to them, I said Rumsfeld helped them get them. We knew those sites were hot but didn't warn the personnel who found them, another reason the Bush administration didn't laud their discovery. They weren't part of an on-going program.

Are you trying to tell me if the chemical weapons found in Iraq were the smoking gun which justified the war the Bush War Pigs wouldn't stage a Mission Accomplished-style event to trumpet their discovery?
