"So they kept the scientists and they kept the technology, but they came
to what I think is a fair conclusion: Why keep stockpiles of weapons that
are vulnerable to inspectors when you've lost your delivery capability?
Wait till you have your delivery capability, and then it's a relatively
short order. We have documentary evidence and testimony that Saddam and
Uday and Qusay asked in both 2000 and 2001 how long it would take to
restart production of mustard and of VX nerve gas.

And that gets to your [Senator Pryor's] earlier, very good question: Why
did they change the strategy? They changed to the things that we were not
particularly good at unmasking, that would allow them to restart the
program as soon as they got rid of us."

I think he's been somewhat misreported, so I'll post this.
