Well naturally Duelfer is most certainly making it all up. Canadian PM Paul Martin is just a Bush poodle like Tony Blair. And Laurie Mylroie, Steven Hayes, George Tenet, and most of the top intelligence gathering agencies in the world all concocted stories about Saddam Hussein being a bad person who had WMDs with plans to use or distribute them to terrorists. At least that is what the libs would like us to believe.

The background for WMD status at this time was: Saddam was desperately working, pleading with other countries to support him in having the UN restraints lifted and for the UN to get out of Iraq. This was in the two year period BEFORE our resolution. Kofi had approached Saddam and said he wouldn't agree to give us any info on anything concerning weapons, i.e., he wouldn't cooperate in any way. I remember Kofi's face when he said this....kinda like....gee, I am so disappointed with Saddam. However, if we weren't on the Security Council, I believe the UN would have left Iraq AT THAT TIME with no further investigation.

Yeah, Hans Blix couldn't find his ass if it wasn't attached, but as far as the left is concerned he's Sherlock Holmes.
