17. After 4 years of inaction, I doubt the Security Council was going
to bring it up. I think it took the IWR which actually put some teeth into non-compliance to get them to put their inspectors back in.

If Gore had been president, there may not have been an IWR, but I think something needed to be done to put an end to the sanctions and isolation of the Iraq government. The IWR was doing a good job until Bush ended it with the invasion.
