Why We Know Iraq is Lying
(New York Times) Condoleezza Rice - Iraq has a high-level political commitment to maintain and conceal its weapons. Iraq maintains institutions whose sole purpose is to thwart the work of the inspectors. Iraq has filed a false declaration to the UN that amounts to a 12,200-page lie. As a recent inspection at the home of an Iraqi nuclear scientist demonstrated, material and documents are still being moved around in farcical shell games. By both its actions and its inactions, Iraq is proving that it is a nation with something to hide. It should know that time is running out.
