OK let me see how this works. Spend $300 million and all you've found is a vial in a scientists fridge that has been there for 10 years, Revelation casts doubt on Iraq find . Now they want $600 million more to continue the search!? I got three stories on this: (1) Officials Say Bush Seeks $600 Million to Hunt Iraq Arms (2) Saddam's elusive weapons (3) Stories May Change, But The Perception Remains The Same. After reading all of this it seems to me that David Kay doesn't want to lose his job like so many other Americans. I think this is throwing good money after bad and agree with a couple points in the articles. First, the perception is already in peoples minds that weapons will not be found. Next, as with the Iraq reconstruction, to legitimize any find in the worlds opinion let the UN inspectors take over. This will also save us the extra $600 million. The one thing I take exception to is the crack about conspiracy theories in the last article, you know me. By the way, Kay may have an agenda, Survey Group head's link to arms industry.
