Saddam had taken 35 tons of RDX from the sealed site while the inspectors were gone (this was NOT in the month before the war, but 2002, IIRC). If he could do that, what would have prevented him from breaching the WMD bunker if he wanted to give them to terrorists? It's not like he was concerned about the safety of his own people or the terrorists like we are concerned about our troops, is it?
Why were those WMDs not destroyed in the TWELVE YEARS between gulf war 1 and 2?
