Charles Duelfer, who led the official U.S. search for 
    weapons of mass destruction after the war, says the tapes 
    show extensive deception but don't prove that weapons 
    were still hidden in Iraq at the time of the U.S.-led war 
    in 2003. "What they do is support the conclusion in the 
    report, which we made in the last couple of years, that 
    the regime had the intention of building and rebuilding 
    weapons of mass destruction, when circumstances permitted."
