Iraq's WMD Report

That's the question, and those are the responses.

I'm not sure about you folks, but I myself am waiting to see exactly what's in the report. Apparently, 50% of those voting on MSNBC.com have already translated the thousands of pages, thoroughly looked over them and decided that Saddam was still hiding something. What do you think?

I'm not surprised at the poll results. I'd be voting to see the weapons reports though. Not only that but I want to see what the inspectors turn up in the next few weeks. If something doesn't match the report then I'm likely to say Saddam is hiding something. It seems people are all for Saddam being guilty before proven innocent. That goes against our american belief of innocent until proven guilty.

I think multiple choice web surveys are useless...especially when the available choices do not encapsulate all the actual possibilities. I suspect responders to this survey thought they were being asked to predict the outcome based on what they'd heard so far.

Last i check only 3 copies of the entire report exist and the US does not have access to one. One went to the IAEA, on to the Vienna for the UN and the origional.

The world appears to be 60,000 pages of info on dual-use activities/equipment and related people and no weapons. Quite possibly true.

<B>U.S., U.N. Get Copy of Iraqi Arms Papers</B>

UNITED NATIONS (AP) - The United States took possession Monday of the Security Council's copy of Saddam Hussein's massive arms declaration, as inspectors began combing the dossier for clues about whether Iraq is free of weapons of mass destruction.

Reversing an earlier decision, the U.N. Security Council agreed late Sunday to give the United States and the four other permanent council members - Britain, France, Russia and China - full copies of the 12,000-page declaration.

Deputy Russian Ambassador Gennady Gatilov said the United States had taken the council's lone copy to Washington where it would make duplicates for distribution to the four other powerful council members.
