The report was written by Charles Duelfer for the CIA's Iraq Survey Group. This is the report that was widely quoted (out of context) because it said most of the wmds had been destroyed in '91, but also said there were others that weren't destroyed, and still others that couldn't be accounted for. It also went on to say the following:

Saddam focused his attention on three members of the Security Council — France, China and Russia — by bribing government officials and business executives with billions of dollars skimmed from Oil for Food. "At a minimum," the report says, "Saddam wanted to divide the five permanent members [of the Security Council] and foment international public support of Iraq at the UN and throughout the world by a savvy public relations campaign and an extensive diplomatic effort." Indeed, Saddam's ploy almost worked: "By 2000-2001, Saddam had managed to mitigate many of the effects of sanctions and undermine their international support," the report said.

You believe what you choose to believe, but apparently unhampered by facts and data!
