That is what Ritter was saying

It is? In 1998 he was testifying they retained their weapons capabilities.

Just one example, from a recent interview:

Asman: Let me read to you a couple of quotes. I'm sure you've heard it before, but these are from four years ago, when you sounded about Saddam Hussein not very much different from the way President Bush did today at the U.N. This one is from this week--August 30, 1998--"Six months is a very reasonable time scale for Iraq to resume weapons capabilities." The second two are from Good Morning America also in August of '98. First, "Iraq's job is to avoid bringing the world's attention to the fact they've retained these weapons," and then, "Iraq retains the capability to launch a chemical strike." Sounds like Saddam Hussein is very dangerous and could mount a chemical strike right now.

Ritter: And what point are you trying to make?

Asman: Do you disagree with that in any way, shape or form?

Ritter: I don't disagree with anything I've ever said. Why in God's name would I disagree with something I've said?
