The term WMD became a household term due to the everyday reminders of the capabilities of Iraq. It is now clear this was incorrect at best. Some accuse the administration of Lying to garner the support required by the population for War.
These statements are on record, and are a matter of factual history, there can be no question as to these facts.
Please defend these facts, or prove them as falsehoods.

Not to be an ass, but your statements have inconsistencies because the sentence "These statements are on record, and are a matter of factual history, there can be no question as to these facts." makes discussion moot because your focus for discussion is "defend these facts, or prove them as falsehoods". If the facts are a matter of record and not questionable, this thread has no reason for existing. If the facts are not a matter of record or have a vague area open for interpretation, then the sentence "These statements are on record, and are a matter of factual history, there can be no question as to these facts." is false.
I believe your premises for framing the debate either contradict with the resolution of the debate or everything syncs and no debate will occure because you simply posted un-debateable material (IE. 2+2=4, lets debate).
I'm strongly leaning in the direction of a false premise because it is a VERY rare occurance for statements as large as your opening premise to be set in stone with no room for interpretation (facts).
