WASHINGTON (GOPUSA News) -- The Iraqi government announced that it had found four additional chemical warheads on Sunday, similar to those found by U.N. Chief Inspector Hans Blix. This brings the total number of admitted chemical warheads in Iraq to sixteen.

U.S. officials said they continue to be troubled by noncompliance on the part of Iraq which is, as White House Spokesman Ari Fleischer said, "entering its final phase."

Fleischer said that the President was "serious and troubled" about the warhead discovery, since they were not listed in Iraq's supposedly complete declaration of arms submitted to the United Nations in December.

What do you think? Will we hear enough proof from the President soon to silence his critics?

http://gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/angry.gif I believe these warheads are just tokens to try to convince people that they are compying with the mandate. Why don't they come up with the proof that the other 10's of thousands of WMD's have been destroyed as they claim. I don't think it would be a good idea to let Saddam go into exile in another country as he could possibly still have some control of what goes on in Iraq. http://gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/angry.gif

Right Nekala. *Saddam will do nothing to honestly comply. *I think you are right about allowing him to go into exile too. There is only one good answer to the problem he presents. http://gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/shoot_sig.gif

I agree that we can’t let Saddam and his gang land in some other country. I would let them take off..

I can’t think of a country that would take the risk of having Saddam and his inner circle free to walk around in the midst.
