I completely agree dude, which is why it makes no sense through logic to think that if he had destroyed his WMDs he wouldn't submit proof of it, seeing as how - we're he telling the truth - that's all that would be requierd for him to truly remain in power.
Instead, they were not destroyed and therefore he had no proof to the contrary to submit. So, from there, there are 2 options really - 1) be ushered into war, use the WMDs, world opinion shifts entirely against you without a question of doubt, and that's that - there is absolutely nothing left for him - or, 2) be ushered into war, hide and/or sell your WMDs, watch the world defend you (verbally at least) against the United States, not lose every last grasp of power you have, and perhaps go on to eventually see those hidden/sold WMDs be used on the US one day.
