It doesn't take theories of stupidity or pressure to believe that intelligence services all over the world were unlikely to believe that Saddam threw the UN inspectors out in 1998 so that he could secretly destroy all his WMDs while making the world think he still had them. I know how you like facts. According to the State Department (On their own Web Site)Inspectors were not thrown out. Things got tough and the inspectors left. Myth: UNSCOM inspectors behaved badly and deserved to be thrown out of Iraq. Fact: The inspectors were not thrown out of Iraq. Iraq's obstructionism and refusal to cooperate with the weapons inspectors, who were carrying out a UN Security Council mandate, prevented the inspectors from fulfilling their mission and they had no choice but to leave. usinfo.state.gov As for Scott Ritter, it has been established to my satisfaction* that he was simply on Sadam's payroll, so who cares what he says or how often he changes his story?* Do you have a link for this fact?
