would have:
Nothing less that full and immediate disarmament is required of the regime by
UNSCR 1441. Yet Saddam continues to resist full and immediate cooperation - even
with respect to the missiles.

26,000 liters of anthrax
38,000 liters of botulinum toxin; and
5500 liters of aflatoxin, a carcinogen.
It is not surprising that Saddam Hussein is willing to sacrifice a few illegal weapons to save many other illegal weapons.Saddam Hussein has a long history of complying with inspectors on small, technical issues, only to continue to cheat inspectors on a large scale. His tactical concessions are designed to buy time, ease the pressure on his regime, split the international community, and erode its resolve.
The danger posed by Saddam Hussein and his weapons cannot be ignored or wished away. We hope the Iraqi regime will meet the demands of the UN and disarm, fully and peacefully. If it does not, we are prepared to disarm Iraq by force.
