Justification

Classified documents of the Saddam regime have pinpointed the location of weapons caches that have been discovered to contain chemical weapons, ie. WMD's. About 500 degraded mustard and sarin munitions were uncovered and the current estimate is that only about 0.25% of the over 10,000 weapons caches have been evaluated thus far. Arm wrenching has thus far been required to obtain any information about the WMD situation in Iraq. Fears of being accused of politicizing intelligence data is being blamed for the slow dribble of information yet the intelligence leaks that would hurt the Bush administration tend to blow like a Louisiana levy. Hopefully the call for declassification will attract enough attention to ensure a complete release of information to the American public.
