Not even the U.S. used the WMD munitions found as evidence. The U.S. regarded them as the remnants of the old legacy Iraqi WMD. Even the binary shells discovered in the hands of militants were not deemed as proof of an Iraqi WMD cache.
Under the terms of UNSCR 678 ALL stocks were to be destroyed without delay, where they in existance in 2003? Where they chemical weapons? Therfore breach of the resolution

The Al Samoud 2's were a bit of a blurred range issue. They were slightly over the range permitted, but not by much. UNMOVIC were in the process of destroying them right up until they had to leave.
Where they over range? Did they breach the resoultion? why did they exist 11 years after they were supposed to have been destroyed?

Even up until the invasion UNMOVIC were destroying Iraqi WMD.
So there must have been WMD to destroy - why?
