Bingo, I think you hit it on the head. It wouldn't surprise me if Bush was actually using this inspection facade as a means to delay any action, to get our forces up to speed in the area, and have all the logistics in place.
THEN, when things are ready, Bush has the CIA tell them where to find the stuff. Tada, smoking gun, followed by some smoking buildings in Iraq.
Dat Bush, he be so dumb.. dumb like a fox...
Agreed 100%. Glad we are smart enough to use the intel we have, regardless of whether the UN wanted to use CIA intel or not.
