Iraq agrees ‘in principle’
to dismantle missiles
Diego Ibarguen, Jessica Guynn
and Martin Merzer
Knight Ridder Newspapers (KRT)
UNITED NATIONS — The Bush
administration’s drive toward war
with Iraq grew more complicated
Thursday evening when Iraqi offi
cials agreed “in principle” to comply
with a U.N. order to begin disman
tling scores of prohibited missiles.
Chief U.N. weapons inspector
Hans Blix had ordered the destruc
tion of Iraq’s A1 Samoud 2 missiles
to begin by Saturday. Many diplo
mats were awaiting Saddam Hus
sein’s response as a test of his will
ingness to comply with U.N.
mandates to disarm.
Though it was not clear that Iraq’s
acceptance was unconditional, the
development seemed likely to
strengthen the stand of those, led by
France, calling for more U.N.
weapons inspections and opposing
President George W. Bush’s push to
ward war.
Earlier Thursday, Bush portrayed
the missile issue as little more than
a distraction.
“The rockets are just the tip of the
iceberg,” he said. “The only question
at hand is total, complete disarma
ment, which he is refusing to do.”
Independent experts said Hussein
would gain politically by complying.
“If Iraq destroys the missiles,
public opinion will be affected here
and abroad,” said David Albright, a
former U.N. nuclear weapons in
spector who now heads the Insti
tute for Science and International
Security in Washington.
“Clearly, if they destroy the mis
siles the way Dr. Blix envisioned it,
that will be used by opponents of
war to justify their claims that in
spections are working,” agreed
Richard Speier, a former senior Pen
tagon expert on missile proliferation.
“However, they really are delivering
this a drop at a time. They’re not se
rious about disarming.”
Weapons inspectors said Thurs
day night that they would “clarify
this acceptance” by Iraq.
Blix ordered the missiles disman
tled because their range can exceed
the 93-mile limit set by the United
Nations after the 1991 Gulf War.
“They know how to destroy a mis
sile,” Albright said. “You take out the
propellant and bum it. If they do sys
tematically destroy the missiles,
there will be a call from publics
around the world to wait.”
Little progress was evident in the
Bush administration’s efforts to win
support on the 15-member Security
Council for a new U.S.-British-Span
ish resolution that would implicitly
authorize war.
Diplomats from France, Russia
and China confirmed that their na
tions remained committed to ex
panding the inspections. Syria
shares that position.
Bulgaria is the only country that
stands firmly behind the U.S.
British-Spanish resolution.
That leaves six countries — Ango
la, Cameroon, Chile, Guinea, Mexi
co and Pakistan — in the middle.
Nine affirmative votes, and no veto,
are required for passage.

Rogers
continued from page 1
Rogers met his wife, Joanne,
when they were both music majors
at Rollins College in Winter Park,
Fla. In 1991, the college laid a stone
in his honor in its Walk of Fame,
right outside the house where he
lived as a student.
He is survived “by his wife,
Joanne; two sons, two grandsons and
millions of grateful neighbors,” Katie
Couric said on NBC’s “Today.”
During a 1997 awards ceremony
in Los Angeles, Rogers received a
career achievement award from the
nation’s television critics, and he
accepted it with a lesson.
“I realize more and more that
even if we do all the right things in
television scripting and production
and editing and promotion, even if
we should deliver the perfect pro
gram that everybody in the world
would see, if we don’t have love for
the people we’re working with and
the audiences we’re working for,
our whole industry will someday
dwindle,” Rogers told the audience.
“Love and success, always in
that order. It’s that simple and
that difficult.”
He followed that approach on his
program, which was produced from
1968 to 2000 at WQED, the Pitts
burgh public television station.
The last first-run episode of “Mis
ter Rogers’ Neighborhood” was
made in December 2000, but didn’t
air until August 2001.
John Sinclair, chair of the music
department at Rollins College,
called his longtime friend “the epit
ome of a gentle spirit” and a great
ambassador for the school. Rogers
had known about the stomach can
cer at the end of last year, Sinclair
added, but went ahead with his du
ties as grand marshal of the Tour
nament of Roses Parade.
“Through his kindness, he educat
ed all of us on what it was like to be
accepting,” Sinclair said. “He liked
everyone just the way they were.”
In later years, in appearances at
the White House and the Daytime
Emmy Awards, Rogers asked audi
ences to remember “the extra spe
cial people” who had helped them.
He asked for a half-minute of silence.
“I’ll watch the time,” he would
say. People would laugh, then grow
silent. Many would be in tears later.
“Wherever they are, how pleased
the people you’ve been thinking
about must be,” he said afterward.
“My hunch is, that besides me,
there are many others in this life
who often think about you and all
that you’ve done for them.”
Millions are pausing now for an
other reason: Thank you, Mister
Rogers.

Airmen
continued from page 1
Canadian and Belgian Air Forces,
and said he got the idea to bring
Tuskegee Airmen to the University
in 1998 after he saw a film about
them. Lamon has brought
Tuskegee Airmen to the University
several times since 1998.
“Every American should be aware
of the plight of Afro-Americans —
even today, but especially during
World War II,” Lamon said. “Some
people should be ashamed of how
they treat their fellow countrymen.”
Lamon said for a white person to
become a pilot is like climbing
Spencer Butte, but for a black per
son to achieve that same feat is like
climbing Mt. Everest.
“I’m not interested in what they
did as pilots — their victories,
their success — I’m interested in
what they did to become a pilot,”
Lamon said.
Lamon and Holloman said many
young people don’t know the hard
ships black pilots went through to
earn their wings.
“We’re gonna try to make the
students aware that unlike white
students in the Air Corp., we had
different problems,” Holloman said.
Lamon said many white govern
ment officials believed blacks were
incapable of being pilots.
After the U.S. government ap
proved the “Tuskegee Project” to
let blacks train as pilots in 1941,
the first class graduated nine
months later, and 450 airmen
served overseas, 66 of whom died
in battle.
All of the flight training was con
ducted at Moton Field and
Tuskegee Army Air Field in
Tuskegee, Ala. Recruits faced
racism even during their training.
“(It) was right in the heart of seg
regation in the south,” Drummond
said, adding that he was lucky be
cause he didn’t have to go into town
often, where racism was even worse.
While Drummond did not get
any combat experience until the
Korean War, Holloman saw plenty
of action in Italy, where he escort
ed bombers and disrupted Ger
man lines of communication.
“I was happy to be ... putting my
life on the line in defense of my
country,” Holloman said.
At the same time, the flier said
he had to ignore the obstacles
placed in his way.
“I realized only the strong would
survive,” he said.
