Are we keeping a scorecard of how many things Iraq won't permit?

Time to do away with this nonsense of UN Inspectors and go after Sadaam. He is only stalling to buy time and countries like Germany are aiding and abetting him!

Agree 100%.

I was NOT comfortable with the notion that we had to have U.N. approval to take action, but I did understand the political reality, and thought President Bush played a masterful hand in his speech to the United Nations.

But enough is enough. To use a trite slogan...Just Do It.

According to Sec'y Powell, it is not the job of the inspectors to find these weapons and weapon components. Iraq's responsibility is to dig out the weapons and weapon components and let the inspectors verify the destruction of the weapons and weapon components. That is, if Iraq does not participate actively rather than passively, the inspection and disarmament will be done by force.
