Therefore, I expect them to downplay their findings

Excellent point and probably true.

"Hope we got his family out first."

Same thing I thought when I first heard about that. ESPECIALLY since Iraqi agents are doing their best NOT to allow private interviews with Iraqi scientists.

I expect the inspectors to NOT say anything bad towards Iraq, not while they are in country

Good point, although it would behoove them to just keep their mouths shut until they leave, rather than give erroneous info.

My thought was the mound he was taking them to was a mass grave and his family remains were included.

Did you know the U.S. sold a spare (uranium) fuel purification plant for scrap a few years ago? O.K., it was Reno (both subordinates, and her personally) who refused to respond to the buyers questioning of the sale after he found out what it was. He even asked around and was delivered a full set of manuals. It was only direct intervention of the U.K. that got it off the market for resale (The guy would only sell to U.S. allies, but was asking around).

But, but, does that mean Scott Ritter was lying to us? I'm shocked.

Where is Mr. Ritter today? I saw him with Richard Butler on Donahue a couple days ago (I wanted to see how Ritter would like) and he said we had no proof Iraq had WMD. I suppose Ritter's spin is, "The Iraqis STILL don't have WMD--those warheads were empty, after all."

They are meant for carrying chemical weapons which makes them in breach of the UN resolution.

Fox now wondering if we can wait until the 27th report before taking action. My thoughts too as we are backing Sadaam into a corner and he may come out fighting. He actually could have groups around the world ready to go at a moment's notice!

Israel is said to be very nervous right now.

Blix will appear later today to state that these were just a bunch of old empty fire extinguishers...

Pocket protector and all, eh?

These bunkers were built in the late 1990's. So Sadaam is lying -- these casings were put there in the late 1990's when the bunkers were built. Not to mention these were in pristine condition -- not old! His 7-year deal is a lie but wouldn't expect MSNBC to report that!

Turn up the heat in the press stating intent to wait until the 27th for the report - then smoke them before then!

If they won't play by the rules, why should we? Plus, the element of surprise will certainly help the people we put in harm's way.

I am with you! This is making a lot of people very nervous because we don't know what a cornered Sadaam is going to do!
