BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- Iraqi officials said they have found four more empty chemical warheads similar to 12 others found last week, the U.N.'s chief weapons inspector said Sunday.

Hans Blix, in Baghdad with top nuclear weapons inspector Mohamed ElBaradei, told CNN's "Late Edition" that the 12 empty warheads were on the agenda for talks Sunday with Iraqi officials.

I wonder what to read into the idea, that now the Iraqis are finding the warheads?

Could it be that now, with the inspectors uncovering undeclared warheads, they know they have been found out? And the only path to avoid military action, is to start "finding" stuff themselves?

That "voluntary" cooperation thing?

How appropriate that Hitlery's pic is right on this page, cuz when I read the headline, I thought of those files she "found" all of a sudden.

I didn't believe her, I don't believe Hussein.

[areafiftyone]

They probably figure if they find them the inspectors won't look any further in those areas.

[OKSooner]

They know they've been found out, hence the "retreating confessions".

This whole thing is like vaudeville. Saddam is Eddie Cantor and Hans Blix is Fanny Brice. It's great comedy.

Saddam lets the players find empty shells near curtain time. The UN calls for encore after encore. Confusion and stalling-tactics reign on stage.

I'm rolling in the aisles.

President Bush, get the hook!

I think it is true that the Iraqis simply forgot about these weapons. If they had known where they were the inspectors never would have found them. They would have been hidden with the missles that are filled with chemical and biological agents.

Glad to give you a smile, Grammie. :o)

[Brad’s Gramma]

Hang on. I'll give you a smile back.

Surprised? That tells you how compatent the UN inspectors are.

Only Hans Blix's stooges would be suprised...LOL.

[Brad’s Gramma]

Sorry. Well.....sorta.

[1tin_soldier]

Yeah. And the bird droppings really clinch it..... I mean if that isn't proof that they didn't know about them, what is? PLEASE!

The discovery of four more such warheads -- and the potential to discover more -- beg the question of whether they are "remnants of the past [or] the tip of an iceberg," Blix said.

File under: "We have absolutely no weapons of mass destruction, but if you attack us, we'll use them on you."
