PERFECTLY GOOD REASONS
For Keeping UN Inspectors Out of Iraq

The chief United Nations weapons inspector, Hans Blix, has questioned the intelligence used by the United States and Britain to justify attacking Iraq for concealing weapons of mass destruction. Dr Blix, faulted by Washington for not coming up with evidence of illegal weapons, also accused US officials of deliberately seeking to discredit his team in the run-up to the war in a bid to win political support for military action.

Perhaps there were no WMDs in Iraq to begin with. Perhaps allowing Blix and a UN team of inspectors to return to Iraq would make this all too plain to see. Perhaps not. One thing is for sure: the United States continues to play its shady game of geopolitical three card monte; UN inspectors could lend a great deal of credibility to any WMD discoveries--Bush, for some reason, doesn't want that.
