A report declassified by the UN yesterday contained the revelation that inspectors have recently discovered an undeclared Iraqi drone with a wingspan of 7.45m, the TIMES OF LONDON is reporting Saturday.
US officials are outraged that Hans Blix did not inform the Security Council about the remotely piloted vehicle in his oral presentation to Foreign Ministers and tried to bury it in a 173-page single-spaced report distributed later in the day.

Good point. Maybe now the French can jump on the bandwagon and blame it on Blix.

As if it's news to the U.N.....especially in light of Powell's warning on this weeks ago. The U.N. is filled with these:

One thing which seems to be utterly lacking in the Coalition of the Billing's military scheme is the Element of Surprise.
One third of our Marine force is currently sitting in a postage stamp size country within the range of buzz bombs
carrying loads of chemical and biological poisons. If this force should be lost in a pre-emptive Iraqi attack, this Presidency is fini.

What is it that make you think Bush is going to rid America of the UN?I don't, necessarily. But he is forcing them to reveal who they truly are, in a way that carries an emotional connection with us.

About the poor bastard that tried to get asylum with the inspectors and was turned back to the authoritiesm and Blix said something like "there are more elegant ways to try to contact us."Yup. I heard that the other day too, they also said his family has reported him "missing." Makes me sick.

Now, it's clear that inspectors are enabling.Your statement calls for an encore!
Blix is a fat cat, trying to say "what canary" as he slowly grinds it in his mouth. I am going to hold him and his UN partners responsible when the human cost of his deception is documented.

"Everyone is upset that Bush went to the UN over this whole thing at all. I think it's a stroke of genius. While he temporarily suffers an attack from the American fifth column of socialist/communists, and the disrespect of the leftist media, he gives the UN enough rope to hang themselves for the long term."Good observation...
One might say Dubya Bush is the Lt. Columbo of American Presidents.

No one ever said Blix wasn't duplicitous. The UN probably made duplicity a prime requirement for the chief inspector's job.
Ignorance thy name is Blix.

Recent inspections have also revealed the existence of a drone with a wingspan of 7.45m that has not been declared by Iraq, the report said.
Colin Powell, the US Secretary of State, told the Security Council in February that Washington had evidence that Iraq had test-flown a drone in a race-track pattern for 500km non-stop.

The U.N. is the backer of both the"Axis of Evil' and the "Axis of Weasels". They are a repository for evil. They should be cast out of America.
To: We Happy Few
This is not Blix's first time at bat..
FOX reported that Blix has a record of failure..
He has failed to take note of significant illegal activity in other nations....
He is a bozo. A highly paid bozo... A typical UN bozo.
A bozo that prefers to place the US at risk, rather than go against his "handlers"..
I hope that Powell will strip the polite bullshit veneer away and expose his failures and errors on national TV..

11:00 am PST - FOX tells this story - and how mad the USA/UK are at Blix.
Also ... this little item may explain why the meeting the Sec.Council had after the general meeting was so heated - with yelling and shouting reportedly going on in the private room.
