Conditions of the Armistice with Iraq as stated by the UN........... globalsecurity.org. Glancing through these requirements I see only one that was implemented. -Allowing Inspectors into Iraq for a time Gross non-compliance in the others, total disdain and deceit for 12 years. If those huge supplies of chemicals were disposed of, it was supposed to be done under Inspectors supervision. How complaint was Saddam ?. It took troops in Kuwait, 5 Carriers of the coast, an approval by the US Congress for a War, and 14 Resolutions by the UN. Merely to let the Inspectors move safely back into the country. Are Armistices obsolete? A truce preceding a peace treaty. I dont recall the US or the UN signing a peace treaty, and therefore no peace existed. Iraq remaining in non-compliance meant a state of war still existed. Did not need a new war. Sig
