Department of State Washington File: Transcript: State Department Noon Briefing, March 24
In our view, without the cooperation of some Iranian officials along that waterway that I described last month, Saddam could not smuggle gasoil, and the profits from this smuggling would not be able to be used for these kinds of purposes. In our view, what this photograph demonstrates is that not only will Saddam Hussein continue to try to evade his responsibilities in giving up weapons of mass destruction, but he continues to spends his scarce resources on one of the worst activities any government can spend its money on; that is, state sponsorship of terrorism.

The Rapid Reaction Group was instrumental in initiating the dismissal of three police officers of the Didube–Chughureti police station in Tbilisi. These officers had detained minor Vakhtang Mamuliani for theft at a photo store in January. According to a witness, police severely beat and threatened to rape Mamuliani during his detention. In addition, Mamuliani's transfer to the police station was not properly registered, limiting the ability of third parties to verify his arrest. The Rapid Reaction Group's work was noted in the U.N. Human Rights Committee's annual review, which criticized overall human rights practices and prisoner treatment in the country. ... [Read More]
Remarks to the United Nations Security Council
Here we see cargo vehicles are again at this transshipment point, and we can see that they are accompanied by a decontamination vehicle associated with biological or chemical weapons activity. What makes this picture significant is that we have a human source who has corroborated that movement of chemical weapons occurred at this site at that time.
