“[I]n September [23] 2002, during the congressional debate on the Iraq War resolution, [former Vice President Al] Gore had told a San Francisco audience, ‘Iraq’s search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to completely deter, and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power. …We know that [Saddam] has stored away secret supplies of biological weapons and chemical weapons throughout his country.’ ”
