One year ago, February of 1998, the administration signed a deal. We are getting ready to go to war with Iraq because they wouldn't let us have our arms control inspectors in, and all of a sudden we delegate the authority to the Secretary General. He runs to Baghdad. They signed a deal. Everybody is shaking hands.
War is avoided.
We have an agreement. We have Kofi Annan's signature. Last August, the Iraqis stopped inspectors again. Now, they have done this repeatedly. They announced they would no longer cooperate.
