In Shifting Sands
'The Untold Story of Weapons Inspection in Iraq'. Ex Chief Weapons Inspector Scott Ritter covers the history of UNSCOM through the 1990s and its final dissolution in 1998. He maintains it was manipulated by the US for its own political ends which included provoking Iraq into confrontation. The film also lays bare the deceptions and concealment that characterises Iraqi behaviour over its arsenal of WMD. Assembled over almost a decade and completed in 2001, "In Shifting Sands" is remarkably timely - but in the wake of the latest reports from the inspection team that succeeded UNSCOM, it offers much food for thought and few easy answers.
