U.S. Still Searching for Banned Weapons in Iraq

AS SAYLIYA CAMP, Qatar (Reuters) - U.S. forces have yet to find conclusive
proof that Iraq (news - web sites) possessed weapons of mass destruction,
but thousands of sites remain to be searched, the U.S. war commander said on
Sunday.
"I have not found any that I have absolutely satisfied myself are...weapon
of mass destruction materials," General Tommy Franks told CNN in an
interview at Central Command war headquarters in Qatar.
"But you're talking about 2,000, 3,000 perhaps, places in this country where
we know we're going to go and investigate each one of them. We may
have...somewhere between five and 10 and 15 site exploitations ongoing in a
24-hour period of time."
