Like I said, we can disagree on whether Saddam posed a clear and present danger to the US (directly or indirectly by selling some toxins to terrorists) but its completely indefensible to assert that he was incapable of posing a threat.

How did Iraq pose a threat, Beestie? They had an army? They had tanks? Everyone's got those.
The UN inspection teams hadn't found anything in violation of UN terms by the time we invaded and they wanted more time to continue their search and run tests. At one time Iraq
did pose a threat to surrounding areas, but in the past two years there was no evidence (except for false or misleading) to support that Iraq had WMD.
