Yes - he had exact knowledge of where all the chemicals were stored and got rid of them all by launching cruise missiles from hundreds miles away. He got rid of the chemicals just like he got rid of Osama and all the Al Queda infrastructure in Afghanistan.
That is such B.S. That is just giving way to much credence to airpower. Since that attack there are many liberals that claimed that those attacks achieved absolutely nothing. I am glad Clinton did them but to aver that they took out all of Saddam's WMDs is just blind partisan denial of what is possible. The only way to insure that we got all the WMDs was through a ground invasion.
And the claim that these cruise missles almost brought down the regime - please. During the Gulf War we bombed IIraq mercilessley and two major insurgencies were started and Saddam still held on. But a few cruise missles launched at the country almost brought him down. Yeah right.
And it didn't matter if Saddam was poor after 91. Its not like he cared about his people and he still had money. There was no reason to believe that he didn't start building them again.
