Why wouldn't a former UN weapons inspector have continued contact with current UN weapons inspectors? Got something more than your personal supposition on this? So I guess those retired generals we see parading on television don't know anything about what's going on because they're no longer active generals. ... you wanna help me get the generals off the air? I didn't think so Sorry, don't know what you're talking about. I haven't watched TV news programs for a good while.

Re. Ritter's credibility, wonder what you think about this Ritter opinion: When specifically asked about Ramsey Clark, Ritter replied: "I wouldn't be in touch with Ramsey Clark. . .I fought in the Gulf War. I was in that war. I know what went on during that war, and we're not war criminals. I'm not a war criminal. And none of the people I served with are war criminals. And yet he's accusing the U.S. of committing war crimes because A-10 aircraft fired depleted uranium shells at Iraqi tanks. That's horribly irresponsible. I don't want to be associated with that man. That's the kind of thing I'm talking about. He may have a point when it comes to economic sanctions, but he hasn't a clue of what's involved in modern warfare and why we targeted certain targets. . .He's grossly irresponsible in some of the things he says."
