Both Ritter and Blix told us they didn't have weapons and they were villified and ridiculed by people on your side who beat the drums of war. Scammer why should you care what the inspectors said regardless since you guys wanted this war whether the inspectors were there or not. The inspectors were there before the war and found nothing before they were thrown out by Bush.

[PogueMoran]

Invite war? We gave Saddam an ultimatem let the inspectors back in or we'll attack. In 2002 before the war started the inspectors were given access and they weren't finding anything at all. They were then expelled by the Bush Administration as they were set to attack.

OK int... what's good old Hans saying these days? He wasn't thrown out?

[intigfx]

it's amazing how you guys twist events to your convenience in order to justify a war while ignoring other crucial elements; just check Hans Blix. enough said.

Int: the point is that Sadam acted like he believed those 4-year old WMD lies by throwing out the UN inspectors, eh.

[a1scam]

Hi int. Many people will agree with your proposition. The case for war with Iraq rests on the expulsion of UN inspectors. This implies development of nuclear weapons. Otherwise, why would Sadam invite war as he did by this action?
