In Shifting Sands: The Untold Story of Weapons Inspections in Iraq
Former weapons inspector Scott Ritter covers the history of UNSCOM through the 1990s, from Operation Desert Storm to 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 characterizes Iraqi behaviour over its arsenal of weapons of mass destruction. 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 for thought and few easy answers.
