My recollection is that the CIA determined as much, based on the fruits of the Kay Commission, or whatever it was called. (Obviously, any true conservaitve will dismiss the CIA as a partisan opponent of the President, unless it's saying something useful.) Do you really think that's incorrect? If so, do you think:
(a) Saddam destroyed them without telling anyone after Bush took office,
(b) Saddam moved them to Syria (or co-partners in evil Iran or North Korea) before the war, or
(c) They're still there, but very well hidden.
Whichever, cite to an objective factual source, please?

My
recollection is that we found them; and further this recollection is supported by the disclosure of confirmation of the same by a
US Senator and US Congressman last week in the Wall Street Journal.
That said my other
recollection, is that [some of] the weapons were moved to Syria. this is based on assertions by General Moshe Yaalon, who, from 2002-2005, was chief of staff of the Israel Defense Force, the top job in the Israeli military, analogous to the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in the American military and is now a military fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, which assertions were to the extent that "Saddam Hussein moved his chemical weapons to Syria six weeks before the war started"
We all know how good Israeli intelligence is (as compared with the CIA, which Clinton eviscerated during his 8 years in office), right?
