Well that is two statements.

As to the second, true. You can make a nuke that fits in an artillery shell.

As to the first, well the line was a nuclear program. We were told we could not wait to go in because of nukes.

That was a lie.

It wasn’t just nukes, Ludwig. Saddam had used chemical and biological weapons before, and we though he still had them. Hell, back in 2004 we actually found a stockpile of gas shells that had been left behind. Given his past history, we had every reason to suspect Saddam of trying to hide such weapons.
