29. Right
I wasn't saying there was a case for war - I was saying that we needed to get inspectors back in there. Don't misunderstand me - I was against this war from the beginning. I just don't think it's accurate to say that if one was informed, one should have felt justified "knowing" that there were no weapons.

I suspecting there were no weapons, mainly due to the statements of Hussein Kamel. However, also based on his statements, one could reasonably suspect that Iraq had restarted work on some of the chemical and biological weapons programs (the nuclear stuff was bullshit, and was always bullshit). The inspections were necessary to neutralize this possibility.
