The US ambassador to the UN has declared that Iraq has committed a material breach of the UN resolution demanding a full accounting of their weapons of mass destruction. Colin Powell is also saying much the same thing.
Well, of course they have. Did anyone really expect anything different? The US very likely has a very good idea of what Saddam has and roughly where he has it. We’ve more than likely been gathering intelligence on Iraqi capabilities for some time now. (We’d need to do this, as the first targets we’d need to hit would be WMD facilities.)
War is almost inevitable at this point. Iraq will not disarm, and regime change remains the only viable option of defusing the threat of Iraqi WMDs. It’s a task that will not be easy, but our soldiers are ready, and they will prevail. However, a few prayers that they stay safe out there might be in order…
