Ah Don, admit it you're just pissed off because I came up with a solution to your little problem.

You have obviously never been in any situation remotely like the one you described, therefore it is highly unlikely that I will take your word for what might or might not happen.

Something gets thrown out that is of the right size and lands with a convincing thud, followed by a person appearing through the door, preferably as near naked as possible with both hands in full view and guess what Don - They aren't going to open fire

1). Before the fighting, Hans Blix reported that the Iraqis were allowing his team access to anything they asked for, and allowing them to go wherever they chose,

But that is not what was required was it Don 1441 demanded full proactive co-operation and that is not what you have described above.

yet they didn't turn up any of these "forensic traces that the above activities leave behind"........WHY?

Could it possibly be because nothing was destroyed at the site the Iraqis have brought you to. The site where they swear that the unaccounted for WMD were unilaterally destroyed without the required oversight by UNSCOM years previously.

Go to the former battle-fields of Northern France Don with a forensic scientist with the right kit and he can tell where shells landed and whether they were from the First or the Second World War

2). The fighting over, inspection teams went into Iraq, and assiduously searched for WMD, or evidence thereof, without turning up any of these "forensic traces that the above activities leave behind"........WHY?

They were still operating blind in a very large country. However items were found both by UNMOVIC and by the post-invasion Iraq Inspection Teams. In bringing Baghdad airport back into service they found a Mig 29 buried in the sand, they weren't looking for it they just stumbled across it.
