Sounds like a fairly simple question to me. They are waiting for their friends to convince the US to back down and pull their troops back. Then get the UN to drop all sanctions cause they're real swell guys now. They will then make a few gazillion dollars selling their oil while they build up their army. Once convinced of their own superiority they will check the map and see which country is next in line to be invaded.
Saddam is surely smart enough to know that if he had used WMD's in the Last 12 years the political climate of the region would have meant instant action by the US and her allies.
