I was able to listen to roughly 45 minutes of his presentation, from around 9:45CST until 10:30CST, and was quite pleased with what has been presented so far.
Numerous audio recordings, satellite images, and other incriminating evidence was provided in what seems to be obvious evidence of Iraq's possession of biological and chemical weapons, and a possibility of at least nuclear weapon research facilities, if not nuclear weapons themselves.
Even if Iraq does not currently have in its possession ANY weapons deemed capable of mass casualties, they are in material breach of UN resolution 1421 passed in November, 2002. Satellite images showing huge vehical caravans exporting materials from weapons facilities days before UN inspectors were to arrive. Audio recordings of high up military officials relaying orders to destroy, hide, or remove incriminating weapons and vehicles were also presented.
After hearing the 45 minutes, of which I am under the assumption another 45 minutes remained, I can not understand how any one person or nation could state that evidence has not been presented which proves Iraq's involvement in dangerous biological and chemical weaponry, possible creation of nuclear weapons, and gross breach of not only the most recent UN resolution, but all resolutions regarding Iraq's disarmament previous to the one approved in November of 2002.
Saddam Hussein, if not a threat to the United States, is a threat to his neighbors, as evident by his historical use of chemical and biological weapons on those neighbors and even his own citizens.
War is a horrible thing. But it seems foolish to sit around while France, Germany, and partisan officials from the United States bend over and turn a blind eye to the evidence proving Saddam's having these dangerous weapons. 17 UN resolutions seem to prove diplomacy will not work with this man. He has disregarded the demands of the UN and those demands of the treaty which was signed after the Persian Gulf War.
What's it going to be; a dead Saddam Hussein and his military hooligans or thousands of dead civilians from around the world killed by his biological and chemical weapons?
