In case you didn't notice, he did invite the UN back in with full access to prove it.. The charge, however, was that Iraq - being the size of California, or whatever - was too large for them to find anything unless they were directly led to them. Since they were never led to anything, the assumption was that something was being hidden. In other words, the burden of proof was on the Iraqis to prove that they had no WMDs, whether that was ever provable is another question altogether..

Iraq DID NOT offer full access. Well, they offered offered it one day and rescined in the very next day. They constantly manipulated the UN and obstructed the inspectors. Not the work of someone with nothing to hide.

Well, since the UN had documents that proved the PRODUCTION of these weapons when they were kicked out in 1998, how do you think they were disposed of. Do you really think ANY government would just flush them down the toilet with no record? Especially a government who documented every person they murdered over the years (including pictures)?

Get real. They were produced, they were either disposed of or hidden. We just have to find out which one. If it turns out they were disposed of, Saddam was intentionally trying to get himself and his Baath party killed. They sure advanced a huge fraud, even to the point of providing their troops with chemical suits and injections.

Some people have convenient memory loss.
