I have seen 2 people recently speak on this. One was a former chief U.N. inspector in Iraq, the other was the scientist who was featured on last night's show, Saddam's Bombmaker, on the History Channel. Both said that it is nearly impossible to find these weapons in the first place, or stop them from being produced. A country has to want to disarm for U.N inspections to work. Is it not apparent that Saddam does not want to disarm?
