*applause*
Patterico says it well:IAEA teams have been visiting Libya for years and knew nothing about the equipment they saw Sunday. Some of it was found along dirt alleys in urban neighborhoods. Even permission to allow surprise inspections would not guarantee discovery of a nuclear weapons program. "Low-level programs like this are difficult to detect. They can be run in a garage," ElBaradei said. "You would have to be lucky or have very good intelligence to run across it. We're doing a lot of soul-searching. "
The smarty-pants types who pretend that it was possible for us to know exactly how far Saddam had gotten with his nuclear weapons program -- and who thought inspectors would solve everything -- would do well to emulate ElBaradei's soul-searching.
