some types of pathogen kill in immeasurable dosages, some chemical weapons, for example VX can kill hundreds of people with a single aerosolized teaspoon size dose, so a single pintsize container could be a WMD, but how would you find it, in a country of that size?

Granted, I don't know this for sure 100%, but something tells me that they're not performing a blind scavenger hunt. "Finding" WMD might involve that in part, but only after setting in on suspect areas (those which have gained that status through other investigation).
If I was looking for 12 Barrels buried in California, I'm not gonna dig holes until they turn up, I'm going to find the documentation laying around that specifies where they're located.
If Saddam had containers of WMD buried out in the vast-nothingness zones of Iraq, wouldn't it be safe to logically assume that there would be some documented information as to where to find them?
Chemical and biological agent delivery systems are a distant bridge to cross when you don't have a way of locating the hidden ingredients.
