Missing the point here. It is not the duty of the inspectors to search everywhere, it is the duty of the Iraqis to prove they have disposed of what they have, account for past arsenals, and OPEN their facilities, unrestricted, to inspectors.
But yes, the inspectors could board Iraqi flagged or chartered vessels. So can the US/UK/Australian Navy.

That is what is understood with OUR logic. However, the libs/idiots/commies/pick a name, want the inspectors to *find* something.
Therefore, going by their logic, the inspectors should board them now, no?

That's the theory, anyway. As it's being played out, however, we know, and the inspectors know, and the !@#^%$ French know, that the Iraqis are hiding stuff, and that the job of the inspectors is to try to find it, or at least to seem like they're trying. That's what the U-2 flights are all about, after all.
