Hammond, director of the Sunshine Project in Austin, Texas, is a
biochemical weapons expert and will be participating in the delegation. He
said today: "All countries that research weapons of mass destruction need
to submit to an inspection regime. This symbolic action is particularly
poignant because last year in Geneva the Bush administration destroyed a
six-year effort involving 140 countries to create a global inspection
regime for biological weapons agents. It didn't just pull out, it actually
stayed in the process with the explicit purpose of insuring there was no
agreement."
