IOW, these two have been wrung dry, and since we know the terrorists know it too, we aren't worried about them trying to "return to the fold", since the terr's will view them as traitors.

...because of fears for their safety in Iraq, where many former regime figures have been assassinated.

Ineresting. No surprise but I don't remember this being reported much.

So we figure if we didnt find any weapons on Mass destruction they where exported to Syria. Now we just set loose the scientists that worked with the Biological side of WMD, How long before they end up in Syria with their old trucks and files and set up shop there?

Personally I would feel better if these people had been shot trying to escape.

* Rihab Taha aka "Dr. Germ": Iraqi. A cunning woman scientist who heads Saddam Hussein's bio-terrorism team Rihab Taha, 45, is so notorious that United Nations weapons inspectors have nicknamed her "Dr. Germ" for deadly experiments she conducted. - "SECRETS OF 'DR. GERM'," by BILL HOFFMANN, New York Post , 10/22/01 *** She is also politically well-connected. Her husband is Iraqi oil minister Amir Rashid Ubaydi, who helps direct the country's relations with the U.N. weapons-inspection teams. U.N. inspectors believe Rihab Taha, who has a 5-year- old daughter, tests her poisons on human guinea pigs. Dr. John Turner, who once taught Rihab Taha biology, told London's Sunday Mirror: "It's a great shock, like finding your daughter has gone and done something dreadful." - "SECRETS OF 'DR. GERM'," by BILL HOFFMANN, New York Post , 10/22/01
