What I can't wait to see is this: What was Hans Blix specifically investigating, where was most of his team's attention, right at the time of the invasion?

Think any GOPwingers would care to know where? Well, if they're wondering--even though I know they ain't!--Blix and his team was, at the time days before the invasion, investigating the very site where Saddam's son-in-law Kamel stated the WMD had been destroyed and buried. There was a debate ongoing over which scientific techniques were best to use in order to determine the accuracy and extent to what got buried.

This is why America today is seeing more Gold Star Mothers. Because Bush would not wait for the results of the testing of this site.

The Bush Administration chose to accept only half of what Kamel told them, that Iraq was close to nuclear in the late-80s (see Cheney's speech before the 2002 103rd VFW Convention). Bush completely ignored, indeed found inconvenient, Kamel's statement that Iraq's WMD had been destroyed and buried--a statement that chief UN weapons inspectors Scott Ritter and Rolf Ekeus took to light when they both pronounced, pre-war, Iraq's WMD had been destroyed. I believe former Defense Secretary Bill Cohen also is on record as saying the WMD had been destroyed.
