From Secratary of State Colin Powells address to the UN Feb 5:
How do I know that? How can I say that? Let me give you a closer look. Look at the image on the left. On the left is a close- up of one of the four chemical bunkers. The two arrows indicate the presence of sure signs that the bunkers are storing chemical munitions. The arrow at the top that says security points to a facility that is the signature item for this kind of bunker. Inside that facility are special guards and special equipment to monitor any leakage that might come out of the bunker.
(shows sattelite imagry to UN Council)
The truck you also see is a signature item. It's a decontamination vehicle in case something goes wrong.
This is characteristic of those four bunkers. The special security facility and the decontamination vehicle will be in the area, if not at any one of them or one of the other, it is moving around those four, and it moves as it needed to move, as people are working in the different bunkers.
Now look at the picture on the right. You are now looking at two of those sanitized bunkers. The signature vehicles are gone, the tents are gone, it's been cleaned up, and it was done on the 22nd of December, as the U.N. inspection team is arriving, and you can see the inspection vehicles arriving in the lower portion of the picture on the right.
The bunkers are clean when the inspectors get there. They found nothing.
-- obviously, you did not see the address, He showed proof the Iraqi's have the stuff, and move the stuff immedately prior to the arrival of the Inspectors.
He showed proofs that the Iraqi's are engaged in subterfuge and is not complying with the mandate to SUBMIT TO INSPECTIONS.
The UN did NOT mandate "play cat and mouse with your materials".
More:
At this ballistic missile site, on Nov. 10, we saw a cargo truck preparing to move ballistic missile components. At this biological weapons related facility, on Nov. 25, just two days before inspections resumed, this truck caravan appeared, something we almost never see at this facility, and we monitor it carefully and regularly.
At this ballistic missile facility, again, two days before inspections began, five large cargo trucks appeared along with the truck-mounted crane to move missiles. We saw this kind of house cleaning at close to 30 sites.
Days after this activity, the vehicles and the equipment that I've just highlighted disappear and the site returns to patterns of normalcy. We don't know precisely what Iraq was moving, but the inspectors already knew about these sites, so Iraq knew that they would be coming.
We must ask ourselves: Why would Iraq suddenly move equipment of this nature before inspections if they were anxious to demonstrate what they had or did not have.
Ok devious.. explain this action by the Iraqi's. WTF does it take to convince you? Shall we jump these convoy moves with rangers for you, hold the convoy at gun-point till the freakin UN inspectors get there?
Because, Devious, unless we blow this toejam in place in Iraq and hog-tie the Iraqi chaparones that ride with the UN teams speaking into radios every second, no UN team will be allowed near it.
Here's the deal, folks. If he has no WMD, we go in, it's over fast, saddams out, and the world has one less mass-murdering dictator. If he does have WMD, a lot of folks on both sides in Iraq get creamed, then it's over REAL fast and the world has one less mass-murdering dictator.
