Everything but the kitchen sink: The White House has helpfully provided a
document to bolster its case for going after Iraq. Called
A Decade of Deception and Defiance, one of its chapters is
Saddam Hussein's Refusal to Return Stolen Property. Which reads in full:
Iraq destroyed much stolen property before it could be returned, and Kuwait claims that large quantities of equipment remain unaccounted for:The UN and Kuwait say Iraq has not returned extensive Kuwaiti state archives and museum pieces, as well as military equipment, including eight Mirage F-1 aircraft, 245 Russian-made fighting vehicles, 90 M113 armored personnel carriers, one Hawk battery, 3,750 Tow and anti-tank missiles, and 675 Russian-made surface-to-air missile batteries.
