How long will it take to locate the weapons? Two months? Six months? A year? And, why is the burden on the U.S. and the UK and not Saddam Hussein and neigboring Arab countries?

And, why is the burden on the U.S. and the UK and not Saddam Hussein and neigboring Arab countries? The U.S. and the U.K. claimed that the Iraqi government possessed weapons of mass destruction. Saddam Hussein and the neighboring Arab countries claimed that they did not. Hence, the burden of proof is on the U.S. and the U.K.
Making an accusation and then telling the target of that accusation to refute it (instead of providing supporting evidence yourself) is the epitome of "grasping for straws."

Because the US and UK claimed there were WMD there and used that as a justification to attack Iraq? We made the claim; we should be able to substantiate it.
