You're referring to U.N. Resolution 687, the original cease-fire measure passed by the Security Council in April 1991, which required that Iraq "unconditionally accept the destruction, removal or rendering harmless" of everything related to its chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons programs, right? It had no deadline or schedule.
They lied and all, but according to the document we wrote, they could sit with their thumbs in their butts with tons of weapons for decades without technically violating the ceasefire agreement.
That's like assigning a research paper with no due date. Most people wouldn't even do it.
