Iraqi Civilian Deaths ... caused by Bush's unprovoked war

 

Blix confirms inspection teams found no WMD and calls for further UN involvement
(David Usborne, The Independent, 4 June 2003)
The chief United Nations weapons inspector has confirmed that his team found "no evidence" of programmes involving weapons of mass destruction in Iraq before they were forced to withdraw from the country to make way for military action. . . . Washington is continuing to block requests from other council members that UN inspectors be allowed back into Iraq to ascertain whether there were any weapons of mass destruction there, as asserted by Britain and the US before the war. . . . So far, inspectors deployed by the US and Britain have failed to find a single banned weapon in Iraq, stirring intense controversy over whether the war was justified. President George Bush has said, however, that two lorries that appear to have been mobile biological laboratories may be proof enough. . . . But on the question of whether Iraq was guilty of concealing weapons, he wrote that his teams "did not find evidence of the continuation or resumption of programs of weapons of mass destruction or significant quantities of proscribed items". . . . But Mr Blix said Unmovic could be ready to return to work in Iraq within two weeks if asked to do so.
