WMD WATCH - WHICH WAY WILL YOU VOTE?

Me, I'm betting with the house.

After briefing a closed session of members of Congress, Dr Kay said those who doubted whether Iraq had any weapons of mass destruction were in for a surprise. He told reporters after the meeting: “There is solid evidence being produced. We don’t intend to expose this evidence until we have full confidence it is solid proof.” He said the Iraq Survey Group was getting active co-operation from Iraqis involved in the weapons programme.

“We are, as we speak, involved in sensitive exploitation of sites that we are being led to by Iraqis,” he said.

British officials also confirmed that a substantial amount of evidence had emerged recently from interviews with Iraqi scientists of the way in which Saddam had concealed his weapons programme from UN inspectors.
