absence again commission conduct cooperation council full light prohibited recorded requires respect security weapons work
In light of this experience, that is, the absence of full cooperation by Iraq, it must regrettably be recorded again that the commission is not able to conduct the substantive disarmament work mandated to it by the Security Council and, thus, to give the council the assurances it requires with respect to Iraq's prohibited weapons programs.
destroy facts sites truth verify weapons
They've got to tell us the whole truth about their weapons -- they've got to let us into the sites that we need to inspect to verify those facts and then destroy the weapons involved. That's the way out of this one.

what weapons do they have and where are they now.
core identify inspection job mass relevant task technical understand weapons whose work
But, as I understand it, the core (of the inspection team) would still be the technicians and professionals from UNSCOM whose job it is to identify anything relevant to weapons of mass destruction. If that's the way this thing comes out by way of a solution, fine, because the core is still our technical work and our task of disarmament.

Iraq's conduct ensured that no progress was able to be made in either the fields of disarmament or accounting for Iraq's prohibited weapons program.

Butler knows very well that Iraq cannot rebuild its arsenal of mass destruction weapons because the means to make these weapons have been destroyed.

I could have been in a position to report to the (U.N.) Security Council the end or very near end of the missile and chemical weapons files.

In a more ideal world Saddam should be on trial in The Hague next to Slobodan Milosevic for crimes against humanity.
band great instead loud maybe personal pressure rock
I like the idea of going out and doing something more personal and intimate, with maybe just one or two other musicians. I've never done that, and it's great to have that challenge, instead of having a loud rock band to take the pressure off me.
including job member recognize united united-states
No member of the council, including the United States, has purported to give me instructions. They all recognize that their job is policy, my job is operation.
amount forward looking people rest ride sharing trail tremendous
It was a banding together. I got to know a tremendous amount of people just from repairing these trails, and I'm looking forward to sharing a trail with them. These are people I'll probably ride with the rest of my life.
