How does that square with information that is out there already? The Bush Administration assumes that Saddam Hussein has active weapons programs that he plans to conceal from your inspectors. Does UNMOVIC share that assumption? I wouldn't say that we have any assumption at all. Nor do we give any benefit of the doubt. We have to try to establish the facts.
