Personal Attacks. The first refuge of the fact-denying NeanderCons
What Moonie said:
The Bold-faced Lie that Fern said:
FACT: On November 8, 2002, the UN Security Council unanimously adopted Resolution 1441, demanding that Iraq give UN inspectors the unconditional right to search anywhere in Iraq for banned weapons.
FACT: Weapons inspectors from UNMOVIC (the U.N. Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission) returned to Iraq on November 18, 2002.
FACT: On 7 December 2002, Iraq submitted a declaration of some 12,000 pages in response to paragraph 3 of resolution 1441 (2002) and within the time stipulated by the Security Council. In the fields of missiles and biotechnology, the declaration contained a full disclosureof materials and information covering the period from 1998 onward.
FACT: In less than 2 months UNMOVIC built-up its capabilities in Iraq from nothing to 260 staff members from 60 countries. This included approximately 100 UNMOVIC inspectors, 60 air operations staff, as well as security personnel, communications, translation and interpretation staff, medical support, and other services at Baghdad and Mosul field offices.
FACT: Inspections included universities, military bases, presidential sites and private residences. Inspections took place on Fridays, the Muslim day of rest, on Christmas day and New Years day.
FACT: In the first two months during which UNMOVIC built-up their presence in Iraq, they conducted about 300 inspections at more than 230 different sites. Of these, more than 20 were sites that had not been inspected before.
FACT: Prior to the invasion of Iraq the roster of inspectors continued to grow with a training program in Vienna. At the end of that course, a roster of about 350 qualified experts were to be added from which to draw inspectors.
FACT: On March 16, 2003, five Bell-212 helicopters used by the inspectors left Iraq because the helicopter's insurance company decided to withdraw coverage. They were British and Canadian. This effectively ended UNMOVIC inspections. Here is a complete list of the 96 daily inspection briefings given by UNMOVIC from November 27, 2002, to March 16, 2003.
FACT: On March 17, 2003, during an address to the nation, President George W Bush declares: "Intelligence gathered by this and other governments leaves no doubt that the Iraq regime continues to possess and conceal some of the most lethal weapons ever devised."
FACT: On March 19/20, 2003, the invasion of Iraq began as 'Shock & Awe' launched air strikes on key Iraqi infrastructure and command
FACT: On May 30, 2003, during a press conference, Lt. General James Conway, USMC declares: "It was a surprise to me then, it remains a surprise to me now, that we have not uncovered weapons... in some of the forward dispersal sites. Again, believe me, it?s not for lack of trying. We?ve been to virtually every ammunition supply point between the Kuwaiti border and Baghdad, but they?re simply not there... We were simply wrong."
FACT: On July 14, 2003, George W. Bush said about Hussein, ?We gave him a chance to allow the inspectors in, and he wouldn?t let them in. And, therefore, after a reasonable request, we decided to remove him from power.?
