Among his editorials in the Wall Street Journal, Gary Milhollin had accused Hans Blix, chief weapons inspector in Iraq, of being "timid" [ [http://www.iraqwatch.org/wmd/hanstimid.htm "Iraq Watch": Hans the Timid] ] and "irrelevant" [ [http://www.iraqwatch.org/wmd/hansirrelevant.htm "Iraq Watch": Hans the Irrelevant] ] for failing to locate weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. The U.S.-led Iraq Survey Group later concluded that Iraq had ended its WMD programs in 1991 and had no active programs at the time of the U.S.-led invasion.
