Whether or not WMD materials are ever found is immaterial.
If memory serves me I think there have been a couple of people that have been detained for having links to "al Qaeda" and I believe a training camp was destroyed in the North that had links to "al Qaeda". Whether or not my memory serves me well...is immaterial.
The invasion of Iraq was for multiple reasons and WMD materials and "al Qaeda" members or those that have links with "al Qaeda" were just a couple of those reasons and in my opinion not on top of the list of reasons.
It is ridiculous to keep repeating the President said this or the President said that. There has not been a President in my life time that has told the truth...the whole truth...and nothing but the truth...and anyone that pays attention is aware of this...and I assume that the same applies to every leader of every country.
In addition Iraq is a fair sized country...with lengthy borders...ports and a poputlation of 27,000,000. Easy to hide materials...easy to export materials...easy for people to hide among the population...or leave the country.
Further more the invasion is less than 90 days old. Come back in three years and post that no WMD materials have been found or no "al Qaeda" members, or those that have links with "al Qaeda", have not been found.
