"...[we] uncovered vast unknown, undeclared uranium enrichment progammes in the billion dollar range and documentary evidence of an advanced nuclear weapons development programme. This is a direct and flagrant violation of Iraq's non-proliferation pledge." Hans Blix in 1991 speech to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Blix was director of the International Atomic Energy Agency from 1981 to 1997, in charge of overseeing inspections of Iraq's nuclear program. Iraq hid this advanced nuclear program from Blix and the IAEA during his whole tenure. It was discovered only after the first war. Blix admits "It's correct to say that the IAEA was fooled by the Iraqi's."

Let's all sing that refrain from the Who song: We won't be fooled again!
