Unfettered access you were saying... To programs? I think that could have been arranged had anyone tried. Right. The very existence of those programs was a violation of the resolutions, so he's going to comply with the resolutions by letting you inspect his outlawed programs? Look.....he had missiles that went several kilometers further than was permitted. He had a whole detailed explanation as to why that was true. It was so detailed it was ridiculous. He clearly was into job security. I firmly believe that the only reason he didn't roll over and play dead was because he was trying to save face in front of the rest of the Arab world. Was he a boy scout? No! But his neighbor bashing days were long gone. But he wanted to remain the king of Iraq. To think otherwise is weaving fantasy. We went to war because of continued defiance of the UN. Previous UN resolutions gave full power to the members to enforce them militarily. Diplomacy ran it's course, and we got tired of it. It's not some hot button WMD = war. You guys are trying to rewrite what happened. Plain and simple. BS. Its you who are rewriting the script. Bush and Blair had agreed to go to war last Sept. They went through the motions of getting the UN to sanction it. When the UN figured out the game, they called them on it. Then Bush used fear to get the American people to support his attack without the UN's approval. The American public, and apparently you, fell for it. If the latest poll is any indication, they are regretting their naiveté! ted
