Iraq Survey Group
The Iraq Survey Group (ISG) is a fact finding mission from the coalition of the Iraq occupation into Iraq's Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) programs. Iraq Survey Group has 1200 members. David Kay is the CIA coordinator for the Iraq Survey Group.
The ISG spent six months searching WMD and issued a report on October 3, 2003. The report finds evidence of WMD in Iraq and the regime did intend to develop more weapons with additional capabilities. Such plans and programs, according to the Iraq Survey Group, appear to have been dormant, the existence of these though were concealed from the United Nations during the inspections that began in 2002.
Iraq Survey Group inspectors in Iraq found clandestine "network of biological laboratories" and a deadly strain of botulinum. The US-sponsored search for WMD has so far cost $300 million and is projected to cost around $600 million more.
