Maybe once England gets attacked you'll see that it's not such an isolated thing. England will get attacked at one point - they're already planning on things as demonstrated by the Ricin incident. I'm not wishing that England or any other country gets attacked - but something is bound to get through at some point.

Here's what I don't understand
The Israelis interviewed (you have to scroll down past the headlines to read the interview) an Iraqi man in Amman last week who claimed to have been one of Saddam's closest security guard, and he says the weapons are under the streets of Baghdad and in dunes near Tikrit. Now, it would be easy to discount that -- if it hadn't been published at a time when UN inspectors are in Iraq and Iraq is supposedly cooperating, and it could be easily confirmed or discounted very quickly.
I just checked the online news, and it's the same old, same old: the inspectors are determined to keep searching for months. Not one word about this remarkable story. Given what's at stake, how could anyone ignore it? Why aren't the journalists asking about it? Why are the UN inspectors still talking about looking for months, instead of addressing this potentially deadlock-breaking claim? I just don't understand it.

I think 'Lady is asking why aren't the weapons inspectors doing something when a man is providing (potential) direct evidence.
Three words - "popular" "opinion" "war".....fill in the gaps |

I wonder if the weapons inspectors really want to catch him in a lie. Blix has been taking a hard line lately - but only because the US has been putting on so much pressure. That's the only reason why the inspectors are in there and it's the only reason why Arab countries are now talking about offering Saddam Hussein exile. It's also the only reason why Iraq opened up talks today with Kuwait and Jordan regarding Kuwaiti and Jordanian prisoners that Iraq captured during the Gulf War (for some reason Iraq lost track of them). But I think that the UN's goal is to avoid war - regardless of how Iraq acts. If they could turn their backs on the situation - they'd be more than happy to - just like they did for the past 4 years. Currently though the UN has the US breathing down it's neck - and they're just hoping that if they can stall till March - that we'll lay off after that. Then the UN can go back to being the same useless organisation it has been.

Maybe I should've added a question mark!?
Why aren't the weapons inspectors doing something when a man is providing (potential) direct evidence.?

That is news to me.........I thought that the weapons inspectors were looking for evidence of WMD along with co-operation, if not then why were the WI's sent there first?, let me emphasise this... there is a man on the world stage saying that he knows the whereabouts of weapons that contradict the past agreements and the inspectors are doing nothing to investigate this why not?.....or am I wrong?

There was also this which I posted on the Iraq Poster thread. In 2001 there is proof that Iraq was illigally bringing in sanctioned equipment. The inspectors even know about it and that Iraw has at least used some of the supplies.

Also - the journalists may not be reporting it in order to give them time to figure out how to confirm this without tipping off Hussein. If it is true - they had to get the weaponry under the streets without digging them up. So they probably have a way of getting them out if they need to.

a bunch of people from my area left today. For training I guess. Old guys too, like my friend's dad. That makes this seem a lot closer to home doesn't it? Heehee i got mad at Bush and threw my remote at the TV. I kind of thought I killed it but it's OK now. Good stress reliever.

-- On this occasion, the use of nuclear and other MD weapons is a real possibility. No inevitability, but a possibility. -- Most of the "pacifists" in the West and elsewhere know Saddam's bad and has to be stopped, but for the above reason they don't want to be the first ones to draw, so to speak, just in case it escalates into a WMD exchange. It wouldn't be "moral." No, they want him to use WMD first (though for him it would not be the first time, at least as far as chemicals go -- just ask the Kurds), and then they'll turn into the most rabid "bomb 'em back to the Stone Age" mouth-foamers the world has ever seen. But they just don't have the guts to do anything until more thousands, and perhaps tens of thousands or even more civilians are killed and maimed. And, baby, that ain't moral. That's lower than Saddam, even. But that's why they're ignoring this guy instead of giving it the tough coverage that would, through public opinion, force the UN inspectors in Baghdad to take a look under the main streets, etc.
