As I recall Han Blix and the UN said that they needed months to locate the WMD throughout Iraq. Two questions come to mind. If we are locating them slowly but surely after the regime has been toppled, how long would it have taken Blix and his happy band of inspectors? When we do find them, does he think that we will make this information known without 100% confirmation? Why would he set himself up like this then?

The White House expressed confidence Tuesday that coalition forces would locate Iraq's weapons of mass destruction despite comments from chief U.N. weapons inspector Hans Blix that the United States had attempted to discredit his team in the days leading up to the war.

"There's no question we remain confident that the (weapons of mass destruction) will be found. One of the things we all knew, and Hans Blix knew it, is what masters of deception the Iraqis are and how many years they had to perfect their deceptions," White House press secretary Ari Fleischer said during the afternoon briefing with reporters.

Fleischer responded to statements made by Blix during an interview with the British Broadcasting Corp., that in the days leading up the war the United States seized on his alleged failure to include details of a drone and cluster bomb found in Iraq in his oral presentations to the U.N. Security Council.


The tortue chambers, money, and freedom mean nothing to the UN. Being relevant seems to be their only goal.
