There is more to it than that. Our ceasefire agreement with Iraq was not that the UN would try to find the WMD - it was that the Iraqis would disclose them and the UN inspectors would verify their destruction. The Iraqis neither gave all of the WMD up nor did they demonstrate that they destroyed all of what was known or disclosed to the UN. Thus they patently violated the ceasefire agreement. It was clear that once the inspectors were let back into Iraq (it might be recalled that Iraq threw them out) they were not getting a level of cooperation that would let them find the WMD anytime soon - the same problem we still have with regard to the WMD.
