Shell Game

I-raq is still running their little shell game.

The inspections have been "intrusive and surprising," said Gen. Hossam Mohammed Amin, who heads Iraq's National Monitoring Directorate, the agency that cooperates with the United Nations in assessing the country's inventory of weapons programs.

"All those activities prove that the Iraqi declarations are credible and the American allegations are baseless," Amin said. "They are lying for political reasons."

That's not entirely accurate, now is it, Hoss? I mean, not even Hans is buying that spiel.

Blix has said Iraq failed to prove in its declaration it has no weapons of mass destruction. U.S. and British officials have also said they found the declaration short of a full accounting.

Things getting a little warm over there, Hoss? I'm predicting a veritable heat wave over the next few months.
