"...he said Iraq had admitted in its weapons declaration to importing missile engines and raw material for the production of solid missile fuel. "This import has taken place in violation of the relevant resolutions regulating import and export to Iraq."

I can't believe that AP will stand by this quote as it seems to be the only organization out there who is reporting Blix's comment. I'm sure an error will be acknowledged and a retraction made.

I talked to friend earlier who said the only thing she had heard was coming from ABC News and ABC radio...and THEY are reporting that no WMD..or component parts have been found, says Blix to Security Council.

AP will retract is my guess.

Fox News is reporting the same thing:

U.N. Chief Weapons Inspector Hans Blix said Iraq had violated U.N. sanctions by importing missile engines and raw material for the production of solid missile fuel.

Again I say, if Iraq is in violation for IMPORTING this stuff, someone else is in violation for EXPORTING IT TO IRAQ. Question is, who?
