Before speaking to the U.S. Arab-Economic Forum, U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell met with the Detroit Free Press editorial board. Here are excerpts of the conversation.

___

Q: Has the search for weapons of mass destruction in Iraq become irrelevant at this point?

A: Oh, no, not at all.

Q: Do you expect that we will find them, and are there consequences if we don't?

A: I am quite confident that we will find evidence of the programs and I hope we will find the weapons themselves. David Kay (a CIA special adviser for the weapons search) is hard at work. We will get a first report from Mr. Kay later this week. He's got something like 1,400 people at work. They have miles of documentation, they have lots of things to look at. And they have hundreds of people to interview. It is very painstaking work.

Q: Now, if we haven't found a huge factory full of stuff or a warehouse full of stuff, where will we find them?
