Here is an interesting article from Ion Mihai Pacepa, a Romanian, who is the highest-ranking intelligence officer ever to have defected from the former Soviet bloc. He details why he thinks that Russia was in bed with Saddam, and why he thinks that they helped Saddam get rid of all traces of his WMD. (which may be why we are having problems finding traces of them now) Very convincing and damning article.
