Congratulations, you know more than the CIA.

Exactly. That way he could trigger a backlash that would give our administration the needed "fire" to upend his regime, destroy his country, and put him out of power.

I will guarantee you that he has chemical or biological weapons; you would have to have your head buried in the sand, if you tell me that he wouldnt give those weapons to the first terrorist group that has a viable way of delivering those weapons on the U.S.
Well no [censored]. I would hope he has chemical and biological weapons, seeing as how we supplied him with them using American tax money and our Agriculture Department's CCC loans. Hell, we had the Germans supply entire factories capable of mass producing poison gas to him. Our same aid programs that supplied him with food, chemical weapons, and other military items were also knowingly used to help Saddam obtain technology for its nuclear weapons and ballistic missile programs.
In addition, you are failing understand the MAD principle (Mutually Assured Destruction). Russia does not launch nuclear missiles at us, because they realize that we would in turn launch missiles at them. Iraq does not launch nuclear missiles/weapons of mass destruction at us, or support using such weapons of mass destruction on us, because it would ensure the destruction of Iraq. The only scenario (As I will state and the CIA will agree with me on) is if the Iraq regime faces destruction (ie. this war) then they would use weapons of mass destruction since their destruction is imminent.
