Since the ceasefire agreement he’d signed in 1991, in order to remain in power after the first Gulf War, obligated him to get rid of them, why would Saddam intentionally endure crippling United Nations sanctions as he jerked around, and finally ejected, weapons inspectors? Why wouldn’t he just come clean if he had nothing to hide?</p><p><strong>Tags:</strong> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/pgstreby/iraq' rel='tag'>iraq</a> </p><p><strong>Posted by:</strong> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/pgstreby'>pgstreby</a></p> Fri, 16 Nov 2007 03:19:18 -0000 60
