They had no WMD but they couldn't sign any papers, or provide proof that they had none because they have not stopped being in a standoff with Iran. Fighting stopped but the ill-will each nation harbors for each other did not. Remember, Saddam gassed and killed probrably 100k Iranians in his term.
The only thing that ever kept Iran from invading Iraq and slaughtering them was the fear of the Mustard gas and other WMD.
So Saddam bluffs and provides no proof to Iraq being clean. That keeps him safe from any kinds of attacks from Iran, al Qaeda or a cohesive effort by the Kurds to overthrow him.
