Ritter was correct to say that Saddam needed to be monitored, but under the circumstances when he left, it was just another UN boondoggle since Saddam was refusing access to the spots most in need of inspection. I therefore conclude that Ritter has been full of S#1+ all along since it appears that what he wanted was "the spotlight". Obviously UN inspections as he was demanding were useless and of value only for propaganda purposes ... by Saddam (just like now, hmmm?).
