#1 There will _not_ be a full report on Jan. 27.

"Blix told The Associated Press Thursday that his assessment of Iraq's compliance over the past two months will be presented Monday to the Security Council as a speech, rather than a formal report, and won't include samples taken during searches for weapons in Iraq."

#2 Hans's half-assing his responsibility to produce a report, just like they're half-assing their inspections... should be noted by Bush in the State Of The Union announcement of war, dontcha think?

#3 Like with everything else, certain Europeans insisted that UN inspections were done first but with American help, ie. intelligence. Americans said ok, lets see what they can do by themselves.

And now we can see exactly what the UN can do by itself... NOTHING! like with everything else.

#4 Now that France has blown off the Security Council, Blix may as well dust of his resume. I'm sure Saddam would offer him a reference.

#5 Mr. Blix is fully qualified for many high ranking positions, like, Commisioner of Major League Baseball. He can reopen the investigation of Pete Rose.

#7 Observation: if Iraq uses chemical weapons in the war, will that make France & Germany look stupid?

#8 Commisioner of Major League Baseball? He certainly knows how to strike out.
