Do you go and get involved in volunteering your opinions regarding business decisions that involve your your boss's and/or client's, business dealings when they are not asked for?? I don't think the comparison helps. My business is confidential in nature, and does not affect the world with its crucial role in the next war involving many nations. Mr Blix' "business", on the other hand, is a public one. His job is to tell his findings, observations, feelings (just like the "I don't feel Saddam has fully accepted the disarmement" bit), and yes, opinions, to the world. Not just to the guy who pays him, but the WORLD. I hope you get my point. Not really. Blix is out of line in making any policy recommendationBlix is out of line in making any policy recommendation He has not made a policy recommendation, though. He has given his opinion. But they have NOT spent any "quality" time there.. I'd say the inspectors can decide better than you or me what "quality time" is in this context. And I have to ask you why you don't find that rather suspicious?? Are you trying to say that Blix, and indeed the whole UN inspection group, is in Saddam's pay? :-)
