During Operation Desert Storm, Scott was the ballistic missile advisor to General Schwarzkopf. Later he assumed the role of the lead United Nations weapons inspector for seven years overseeing Iraq's disarmament of its weapons of mass destruction program. He was one of the most forceful critics of the Bush administration's claims that Sadaam Hussain possessed WMDs. Scott is now an author and lecturer who has been very public about the American media's misinformation campaign about Russia's incursion into Ukraine and the gross failures of the Biden White House foreign affairs policies and actions.  He is the author of about ten books dealing with Iraq, Iran and nuclear arms control. His latest book is "Disarmament in the Time of Perestroika" -- a definitive history of the INF treaty signed by Mikhail Gorbachev and Ronald Reagan that Scott was intimately involved with.
