I gave you a link to the whole BBC interview!  What
more context could you want?

"At one point"??  The interview took place *after the
invasion*.

You'd better check your memory banks and see when he
made those complaints.  And how many of the "complaints"
from "too many people" came via the Bush administration?

Remember, it was in the administration's interest to
portray Saddam as not letting the inspectors do their
jobs.  Likewise it was in the administration's interest
to portray Blix as somehow incompetent.

And finally, remember that Blix was *correct*: The weapons
they were looking for did not exist.  Saddam had been
telling the truth.
