It was Bushco not Saddam that pulled the plug on the inspectors and it was Bushco that began an assault in the press against them because the inspectors were not saying what Bushco wanted them to say.
I don' disagree that Bush was hellbent on going into Iraq. What I'm saying as I said in another post is that this was a dog and pony show for the inspectors put on by the officials in Iraq and coordinated by Sadaam. I think even Blix himself admitted that they were not in total control of the inspections.
You'll find that the inspectors led by Mr. Blix were telling the truth and getting slandered for it by Kousin Karl and his merry band of poop flingers. Blix was pleading for more time and every Bushco stooge was out there telling the media that Saddam was not cooperating...when in fact the story from the inspectors was very different.
See above explanation.
and so began Bushco's campaign to slander the UN with all they could because the UN wouldn't go along with the Bushco story because a little thing called FACTS got in the way...|
The U.N has brought on itself a lot of the criticism by it's ineffective methods of enforcing sanctions. They were an easy target
