Saddam Hussein's government paid North Korea $10 million for medium-range Nodong missile technology in the months before the Iraq war, but never received any goods because of U.S. pressure, the chief U.S. weapons inspector in Iraq said yesterday.

David Kay, who is leading the Iraq Survey Group, said there is "a lot of evidence" Iraq was rebuilding its banned missile program, which it actively hid from U.N. weapons inspectors.

It appears to me that David Kay and his group of inspectors have found a whole lot more in a short time than Blixie and his group ever found. Granted, Kay's inspectors don't have So-Dammed's "minders" dogging their heels but the fact remains.....the evidence exists and is being discovered.

You'd sure never know it if you only watched the alphabet news stations, though. sheesh!!
