I still want this answered by Scott.

Question:
You've spoke about having seen the children's prisons in Iraq. Can you describe what you saw there?


Scott Ritter:
The prison in question is at the General Security Services headquarters, which was inspected by my team in Jan. 1998. It appeared to be a prison for children — toddlers up to pre-adolescents — whose only crime was to be the offspring of those who have spoken out politically against the regime of Saddam Hussein. It was a horrific scene. Actually I'm not going to describe what I saw there because what I saw was so horrible that it can be used by those who would want to promote war with Iraq, and right now I'm waging peace.

Ah yes, the children's prison. Looking back over all the things Scottie has said to the press, he's made an AWFUL LOT of statements look a LOT different in hindsight.
