I've read that the Titanic was never described as unsinkable until after it sank. It was dubbed unsinkable by the popular press and we all know how the popular press is with facts.

It needs a wrap around rope so a friend can really spin you like a top.

The evidence that Iraq did indeed have active chemical weapon factories was never broadly advertised because the evidence of their existence came out slowly, long after the mainstream media lost interest.
