Western forces and Iraqi army had been searching for Saddam's weapons of mass destruction in Iraq for the past nine years, 10 months and 15 days.
On Friday, the hard work finally paid off as soldiers found one missile that Saddam Hussein was supposed to have been hiding, reports The Mail, London.
Unfortunately the discovery came just a few days late for former prime minister Tony Blair, who could have used the extraordinary find as proof he was right about Iraq all along during the Chilcot Inquiry.
But from the looks of the rocket, it would appear unlikely it could be deployed anywhere in 45 minutes, let alone be fired at the UK, as a certain dossier led us to believe.
The bomb is thought to have been buried by Saddam Hussein's regime before the UK and U.S. invasion of Iraq started in 2003.Iraqi guards were as surprised as the rest of reporters to discover the 'missile' during an operation in Baghdad's Abu Ghraib suburb.
It is not yet known whether the seven-metre rocket is armed with a warhead.
