sandeep,

Re: Inspecting doesn't work.

According to Hans Blix, Scott Ritter and others, the UN inspections did work to the extent that 90-95% of Hussein's capabilities were destroyed. Only the right wing extremist, Zionist inspectors like David Kay were unwilling to concede that the inspections had worked. Now Kay has a major case of egg on his face, as he sorts through 7,000 boxes of inane files to try to create a "smoking gun" where none exists, and do so in a fashion that doesn't implicate the U.S. in the scheme. Here's a listing of U.S. companies and agencies guilty of arming Iraq with technologies, precursors and WMD components:

Re: He should have come clean - just shown the UN the record of WMD destruction. Even a lame effort would have been acceptable.

This was discussed by one of the guests on Democracy NOW! this morning:

democracynow.org

They haven't quite got the show into archives yet. Give it about another hour. But what the author being interviewed by Amy Goodman about 20-30 minutes into the show stated is that, in essence, the claims made by Bush/Bliar about specific quantities of VX, mustard gas, etc. were based more on accounting errors and omissions than on any hard facts about weapons being still extant after 1992. I'll try to get the segment info for you later this morning.
