U.N. team still looking for Iraq’s WMD arsenal

Inspectors acknowledge their task is finished, but the Security Council hasn’t agreed on what to do with the team

UNITED NATIONS — More than four years after the fall of Baghdad, the United Nations is spending millions of dollars in Iraqi oil money to continue the hunt for Saddam Hussein’s weapons of mass destruction.

Every weekday, at a secure commercial office building on Manhattan’s East Side, a team of 20 U.N. experts on chemical and biological weapons pores over satellite images of former Iraqi weapons sites. They scour the international news media for stories on Saddam’s deadly arsenal. They consult foreign intelligence agencies on the status of Iraqi weapons. And they maintain a cadre of about 300 weapons experts from 50 countries and prepare them for inspections in Iraq — inspections they will almost certainly never conduct, in search of weapons that few believe exist.

1. They have to.

The UN resolution -the one George W. bUsh lies & says gives him the right to be invader & occupier of Iraq, says the UN and ONLY the UN must certify Iraq as being "wmd"-free.

George W. bUsh, the man who kicked the weapons inspectors out of Iraq, refuses to let the UN back into Iraq to do said certification.
