"So there was a big change in Ritter's outlook from 1998 to 2001.

Since he was in a position to observe the changes in Iraq, it probably accounts for the change in Ritter's position.

What was true in 1998, was no longer true in 2001."

Care to expound on how Scott Ritter was in a position to observe the changes in Iraq within the time frame quoted?
