You're right, this won't be covered.

Regarding France and Germany's apparent desire to keep Saddam in power, he said: "On the one hand, it is related to the billions of dollars in contracts that the Baghdad regime has previously signed with Paris and Berlin and, on the other hand, those two great European powers would not be very pleased with an Iraq that has so much natural resources and is moreover located in a geopolitical and geostrategic region to be dominated by America."

The next leader and government of Iraq must be elected by the people of Iraq, added the Iraqi Shiite official.

I heard Powell clearly state at the last Useless Nation's meeting that the inspectors DID NOT use all the intel that we have given them for which sites to look at.

They keep going back to the old cleaned out sites, which if you were smart you'd of left "clean" to fool your enemy into thinking you'd changed your foul ways.
