A former chief United Nations weapons inspector is accused of contacting what he thought was a 15-year-old girl in an Internet chat room, engaging in a sexual conversation and showing himself masturbating on a Web camera.

Scott Ritter of Delmar, N.Y., who served as chief U.N. weapons inspector in Iraq from 1991-98 and who was an outspoken critic of the second Bush administration in the run-up to the war in Iraq, is accused of contacting what turned out to be a Barrett Township police officer posing undercover as a teen girl.

Weapon of Miss Distruction?

Always wondered if his switch in statements had to do with blackmail. I would say that would be a “YES!”

[Longhair_and_Leather]

When are those idiots gonna learn that there are no 15-year-old girls in these chat rooms?

[outofsalt]

And no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq!

[Travis McGee]

Bingo. GMTA.

[YHAOS]

Why am I not surprised.

[sbMKE]

Bush’s Fault!

Why am I not surprised.

The only thing that surprises me is that this freak hasn't been given some high level post by Obama yet.

Sad sad man....whats even sadder is how he left his daughters out there for the ridicule and humiliation they will get from all this.16 yrs old?...High School will not be kind to them... Innocent victims. Lock this perv up and interrogate him until he spills the beans that he was blackmailed for rolling over on Bush.

Is there anyone in the U.N. who ISN'T a pervert or a crook?

Get the UN out of US and get US out of the UN.

Whaaatt? This perv again? Is anyone surprised? Beuller?

[packrat35]

This is the second time. He got caught cruising a Burger King while attacking Bush while Bush was President. He got off with a slap on the wrist that time.

Fool hadn’t learned a thing since then.

How stupid do you have to be to get collared three times trying to meet young girls for sex on the internet? Dude, those are cops, not girls.

Well, there's that guy that heads the IPCC and has bunch of investments in the carbon trading business. Does he count?

[outofsalt]

Was he UNSCUM or UNSCAM, I forget...

[pnh102]

This sick pervert needs to be locked up for life at the minimum. God forbid he rapes a minor.

[Randy Larsen]

Here we go again!

[Longhair_and_Leather]

And how’d he get off the first two times? A cop in my town did it once, and is now doing time in Pennsylvania. He will always be listed as a sex offender, and will have a hard time even getting a job when he is released, but this guy still had a job with the UN? Outrageous.
