Disarming Iraq and the War on Terror are not merely related. Disarming Iraq of its chemical and biological weapons of mass destruction and dismantling its program to develop nuclear weapons is a crucial part of winning the War on Terror.I wish they would repeat this a few thousand times for the benefit of the lefties.

[The inspectors] cannot be charged with a "search and destroy" mission to uncover so-called "smoking guns"--especially not if the host government is intent on hiding them and impeding the inspectors' every move.... When an auditor discovers discrepancies in the books, it is not the auditor's obligation to prove where the embezzler has stashed his money. It is up to the person or institution being audited to explain the discrepancy.

Thanks for posting!
Looking forward to reading the transcript of the question and answer session. One of the reporters was as disgusting and rude as you could get basically saying that he trusts Iraq more than the United States Government. I wish they would state who the reporters are although I know they usually don't!

In the 1990s, there were reports that Iraqi intelligence recruited U.N. inspectors as informants, . During the UNSCOM period, one inspector was reportedly filmed in a compromising situation and blackmailed.
The 180 performed by Mr. Ritter is starting to make sense.

Intimidation and Coercion: In the past, Iraq did not hesitate to use pressure tactics to obtain information about the inspectors. Often the pressure was quite crude. During the UNSCOM period, one inspector was reportedly filmed in a compromising situation and blackmailed. Sometimes the pressure was subtler. Richard Spertzel, a former UNSCOM specialist in biological warfare, recalled the case of an Iraqi official coyly asking a new member of his team: "How far is it from Salt Lake City to Minneapolis?" Having moved from Salt Lake City to Minneapolis just days prior to her arrival in Iraq, she was unnerved by the comment, according to Spertzel.

It was an excellent speech. I didn't hear all of it. Thanks for the transcript.
Wolfowitz brought up SOOOO many great points of fact that it's hard to sort impressions by point, but there are two that are sticking in my head:
1:)) "Intimidation and Coercion: In the past, Iraq did not hesitate to use pressure tactics to obtain information about the inspectors. Often the pressure was quite crude. During the UNSCOM period, one inspector was reportedly filmed in a compromising situation and blackmailed."
He only says one...it's a given that there were more.
2:)) Former inspector David Kay has recalled that in 1991, the inspectors came across a document warning the chief security official of the facility about to be inspected that Kay would lead the U.N. team. That warning had been issued less than 48 hours after the U.N.'s decision had been made, at which time fewer than 10 people within the inspection organization were supposed to know about the operational plan.
MAYBE Iraqi hackers...but information flows MUCH more quickly, smoothly and with less chance of detection when there is inside help.

In the 1990s, there were reports that Iraqi intelligence recruited U.N. inspectors as informants, and that Iraqi scientists were fearful about being interviewed. Recent reports that Iraq continues these kinds of efforts are a clear sign that it is not serious about disarmament.

During the UNSCOM period, one inspector was reportedly filmed in a compromising situation and blackmailed. Now, who might that be...?
