Iraq now claims that they took it upon themselves to destroy the remainder, but do not offer any proof that they have done so. They claim that they also destroyed the paper work of the destruction so they have no paper proof to offer. There would be physical evidence of the destruction but they have not offered any physical evidence. There would be those scientists, engineers and other personell that would have been involved in the destruction but they have not presented these people either. Bottom line is, they had them and 1441 requires that they prove that they no longer have them and their word is not proof. So I repeat the question. What happend to them?

Lets just assume for a moment, for the sake of the argument, that you are correct. Why then, has it taken five years for this to become a public issue.
Sounds to me like a bullshit smokescreen.
Methinks George Bush needs to:
1) Distract the populace from the increasingly ailing domestic economy.
2) Get Iraqi OIL!
