saddam was somehow back in his box reality is that between the original unscom inspections and the unmovic inspections you destroyed with those inspections ninety two probably ninety five percent of iraq yourself the first gulf war destroyed almost nothing and you know post-war u.s. bell damage assessments confirm the weapons inspectors were effective they force to get rid of this stuff. they had that country under control by one nine hundred ninety eight at the latest those inspectors had discovered most of the weapons of mass destruction and the iraqi programs at that point were essentially at an end before the war in iraq the united nations inspectors told us. that saddam hussein. did not have nuclear weapons capability ironically the major effect of the invasion of iraq in terms of weapons of mass destruction as to be has been to show that the inspectors were right all along the inspection regime worked. it was the most intrusive inspection regime in history and it worked and i think on the day that's another reason why we went to war for not. these maniacs. urging our enemies weakenin
