"The problem with Duelfer's assumptions is that they fail to separate Saddam's objectives from Saddam's realities" One serious problem with that line of thinking. The ISG was not asked to perform that task. The task they were asked to perform seems to have adequately been answered. Saddam was a genuine threat. He did fail to comply with UN sanctions, with massive egregious violations of the Gulf War Cease Fire Agreement (UN Res 687). He did keep the means, mode & methodology to immediately ramp up WMD capabilities when sanctions were lifted. Saddam did support, harbor, train & finance terrorism, including links with Al Qaeda. Saddam continued with his horrific crimes against humanity right up until the day he was removed from power.
