The reason that we went into Iraq was because the CIA thought that there were WMD's in there but we soon found out that there weren't.
Actually, there were. We found mustard gas and serin gas shells hidden in various weapon silos, mixed among the normal weapons, even though Saddam claimed to have destroyed all of those weapons in the 90s.
However, we didn't find nukes, the specific WMDs that everyone got all scared about. For some odd reason, you say "mustard gas" and people just stare at you, but you say "nuclear bomb" and people freak the hell out. Both are defined as WMDs, and mustard gas has been completely illegal since WWI.
