They are likely not acting on the underground site info either.

They do not want to make Saddam mad and embarass the French.

If they really were to find something, the Yanks might attack or something! LOL!

UN supervises destruction of six more Iraqi missiles as inspections continue

UN inspectors in Iraq
8 March – United Nations weapons experts today supervised the destruction of additional Iraqi missiles as the international disarmament probe continued in the country.


There were warheads in three of the six Al Samoud 2 missiles destroyed at the Taji Technical Battalion, according to Hiro Ueki, a spokesman for the UN Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission (UNMOVIC) and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).


"This brings to 40 the total number of Al Samoud 2 missiles destroyed to date," Mr. Ueki noted, adding that another missile team today visited the Al Samoud Factory, where tools and special equipment to produce the Al Samoud-2 engine were destroyed.

Other UN missile experts visited the Al Qa Qaa complex to verify the emptying and tagging of warheads for Al Samoud 2 missiles.


Also today, UNMOVIC conducted a private interview with an Iraqi scientist – the eighth such interview since 28 February. "During this period, four private interviews did not take place due to the conditions imposed by the Iraqi interviewees," Mr. Ueki said.


Meanwhile, an UNMOVIC biological team returned to the Al Aziziyah Airfield and Firing Range, where it continued to supervise the excavation of R-400 bombs. "The team took additional samples from the remainders of the stainless steel containers that, Iraq has stated, had been used to transport biological agents," the spokesman reported.


An UNMOVIC chemical team inspected a sulphuric acid plant in the Al Qa Qaa complex, while an UNMOVIC multidisciplinary team inspected the "Yellow Corn Workshop /Al Haydaria" located approximately 100 kilometres south of Baghdad.


The nuclear probe also continued, with an IAEA team inspecting a military factory being built by the SAAD Company south of Baghdad as well as high explosives-related sites in the same area.


In addition, the IAEA inspected the Sahal Al Din Company, which produces military electronic equipment, and in a separate action conducted a radiation survey 30 kilometres northwest of Baghdad.
