....Another element that contributed to faulty assessments was Iraqi rhetoric. <font size=4> Imagine that you were a CIA analyst in June 2000 and heard Saddam make the following statement: "If the world tells us to abandon all our weapons and keep only swords, we will do that ... if they destroy their weapons. But if they keep a rifle and then tell me that I have the right to possess only a sword, then we would say no. As long as the rifle has become a means to defend our country against anybody who may have designs against it, then we will try our best to acquire the rifle." It would be very difficult not to interpret Saddam's remarks as an announcement that he intended to reconstitute his WMD programmes.....<font size=3> Message 19767906
