I like George Will's observation that France's position
lacks sound logic. First, if the inspectors find something,
they claim that the inspections are working and that they
must continue. If they find nothing, they claim that proves
that Iraq has no WMD.

The Seattle Times had a surprising political cartoon yesterday... 12 years, each with a year noted on the bottom starting with 1991. Inside each square was a cartoon of Saddam, thumbing his nose to the UN....for 11 squares. The 12th square said: 2003. Saddam has a BIG gun right in his nose.

Yeah....12 years more. Wonder how long we have to deal with him. And all the while North Korea is having the tantrum over there and none of the other countries in the world care .... waiting for the US to talk to NK.

This is rich, coming from the country that sold Saddam his nuclear reactors, undermined the sanctions, gutted all attempts to impose a meaningful inspections regime, and is now busy pretending that the current farcical inspections routine is finding all there is to find with swell Iraqi cooperation; all we need is a little more "time" - say another twelve years.
