I disagree with the concept of Hussein sending any weapons to Iran or Syria. Iran and Syria both work together, but Hussein did not trust them. Hussein was a survivalist - he thought he had a good chance of getting through the invasion. It is not in his best interests to send off weapons of any kind to a country that was not friendly to him. In fact, Husseins biggest threat was Iran. We actually made Iran very happy because we removed that threat.
Hussein was not developing nuclear weapons. There were chemical weapons containers found, but all the chemical weapons had long expired, and were of no harm to anyone.
The Iraq Survey Group report also indicates that there is no evidence that any weapons were shipped to any other country. This report was created by people who work with evidence to reach conclusions, rather than gut feelings like our President does.

You guys are also forgetting one very important thing. The best quality chemical weapons only have a shelf life of 4-5 years. Any chemical weapons that were made brand new right before the invasion would turning into piles of useless goo right about now, and Husseins earlier home-grown chemical weapons were not very purely refined.
