4. Why did UN weapons inspectors leave Iraq in December 1998?
Saddam Hussein kicked them out.
Chief UN weapons inspector Richard Butler ordered them to leave.
I never heard about this. I heard they left because he was noncooperative. Whether or not Saddam kicked them out, or they left, though, is a moot point and a small distinction because they supposedly left based on Saddam's noncompliance and refusal to allow entrance to certain buildings. We've all seen the videos of them being restricted from certain places, etc.
However, the rest of that quiz was very enlightening...if I wasn't dead broke I'd probly pick up that book.

Yeah, to the suprise of most americans, it is a fact. You can find tons of articles such as this one http://www.fair.org/extra/0210/inspectors.html on google.
You can tell how biased someone is by seeing how they take a fact and twist it to PRETEND that it means something else. Fact is Inspectors were ordered to leave Iraq for their protection because of the US/British plans to bomb Iraq for it's non-compliance. I mean seriously---Do you ever look for the truth about the facts behind the things you read? You think just because it's something different then what you heard that it is correct.
Did you even READ the answer to the question?!?!

a.Saddam Hussein kicked them out.
b.Chief UN weapons inspector Richard Butler ordered them to leave.
answer. b
When the inspectors left Iraq in late '98, ABC, NBC, the Associated Press, the Los Angeles Times, National Public Radio, CNN, USA Today, the New York Times, the Washington Post, and New York Newsday all reported that their boss-Richard Butler-had ordered them to leave. But during the build-up to the 2003 attack on Iraq, every one of those media outlets said that Hussein had thrown out the inspectors. Jim Naureckas of Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting gathers the verbatim before-and-after quotes in Why UN Inspectors Left Iraq in 1998 in Abuse Your Illusions."

YOU should stop hitting the blunt so oftten and read more carefully before you critisize people.

Saddam was not compling with the UN. So Richard Butler ordered them out of Iraq on the basis that of non-compliance. That's when they (The UN) was going to make the 15 or 16th resolution. They had no other choice. People make it sound like the UN left on their own. Saddam did not order them out. But he DID order his people to disobey and make it difficult on the inspectors.
Good point. I heard all the mainstream outlets claiming the same thing. Also top leaders making that claim also. Even people for and against the war claimed it. There must have been somthing more specific that had happend for that many, especially of all different kinds, of sources to take that stance.
the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, seven in 10 Americans continue to believe that Iraq's Saddam Hussein had a role in the attacks,
