Q: What do you make of the statement made by the Iraqi government yesterday that Iraq has no weapons of mass destruction and is not developing any?

Rumsfeld: They are lying. Next.

Q: When you say that Iraq is lying. That story mentioned having weapons --

Rumsfeld: Sometimes I understate for emphasis.

When you said that members of the Kuwaiti government will be meeting with them. Will Kuwaiti government officials be interrogating these detainees? Will they have any access to lawyers that have been retained for them? Has the Kuwaiti government made a request for access that you denied?

Rumsfeld: That is not one follow-up. Goodness gracious.

There were no explicit requests made other than access and there were no requests denied.
The word "lawyer" never came up in our discussions as such.

Q: Interrogation.

Rumsfeld: I have no idea what they intend. Other countries have brought people that interrogated detainees. Whether the Kuwaitis will or not, I do not know.

They are certainly welcome to.

Q: The Indian military has reported that two suspected al Qaeda were killed yesterday in a gunfight in Kashmir.

Rumsfeld: Good.

Man, you just got to love how he handles the press!
