BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- U.N. inspectors are holding their first private interview with an Iraqi scientist linked to previous banned weapons programs, an Iraqi official said Thursday.

Here we go again. Hide and seek. Dodges and Deception. The faucet in drip, drip, dripping again. I'm sure this scientist will let the inspectors know where the bathroom is. That way they can flush all of the CRAP this guy's shoveling their way down the toilet...

IMHO, a hand picked scientist giving a well-rehearsed Dog and Pony Show written by the Iraqi Intelligence Service.

World and US Media: "SEE! THEY ARE COMPLYING NOW! NEVER MIND ABOUT WHAT POWELL SAID, SADDAM HAS CHANGED!"

(Remember when he "suddenly" agreed to 1441 and promised a full disclosure document and unrestricted inspections? The media said - the Bush admin was caught off guard, etc. We should expect more phony "compliance".)

You know, when we kick his a$$ out of there we had BETTER find WMD or we will look pretty foolish...

If we attack and they USE their WMD (that they claim they dont have) we should nuke them on general principals.

More like many others will look foolish when we defeat Saddam and find the WMDs. And you can be sure Saddam isn't going to sit on his WMDs when the US comes in for the kill.

Saddam: Who is the least knowledgable and laziest scientist we have.

General: That would be Akmed Harabbi my lord.

Saddam: Good send him to the UN interviewers, and afterwards shoot him, his family, and his friends.
