This is what Scott Ritter was saying in 1998:
WILLIAM SCOTT RITTER, JR.: Well, I mean, the list is actually quite long over the years. But since November there-since November of 1997, I would say that there have been a half dozen or so inspections, which have been either delayed or postponed or canceled outright, due to pressure exerted on the executive chairman by the United States...

That's right, it was the US, not Saddam, who was preventing the proper completion of the weapons inspection process.
The same thing happened again in 2003. It was Bush, not Saddam, who forced Hans Blix and Unscom to leave Iraq.
