Chief WMD Hunter in Iraq, David Kay, to Quit

HeadlineDec 18, 2003

David Kay the top US official overseeing the hunt for weapons of mass destruction is quitting the project within the next two months well before the Iraq Survey Group issues its final report. This according to the Washington Post. To date no weapons of mass destruction have been found in Iraq. The Post said Kay is stepping down for personal and family reasons. Meanwhile during an interview with ABC on Tuesday, President Bush was asked whether he still believes that Saddam had actual “weapons of mass destruction as opposed to the possibility that he could move to acquire those weapons.” Bush responded “So what’s the difference. The possibility that he could acquire weapons. If he were to acquire weapons, he would be the danger.”
