It does not seem as though this will be an Adlai Stevenson moment. I think a lot of his evidence may be open to wide interpretation. Unless there's a huge surprise, it doesn't seem that the evidence provided will turn global opinion against Saddam.

Aside from my son, no person has ever shown for me the gentle concern I knew from Governor Adlai Stevenson.
Adlai Stevenson, himself a notable speaker, often reminisced about his last meeting with Churchill. I asked him on whom or what he had based his oratorical style. Churchill replied, 'It was an American statesman who inspired me and taught me how to use every note of the human voice like an organ.' Winston then to my amazement started to quote long excerpts from Bourke Cockrans speeches of 60 years before. 'He was my model,' Churchill said. 'I learned from him how to hold thousands in thrall.'
Adlai Stevenson has a genius for saying the right thing, at the right time, to the wrong people.
It's a mixed bag. What was it that Adlai Stevenson said I think he quoted Abraham Lincoln when he said it hurts too much to laugh, but I'm too old to cry. So it is a mixed bag like that.
As kids, we traded 'I like Ike' and 'All the way with Adlai' buttons in elementary school.
Adlai Stevenson was a man who could never make up his mind whether he had to go to the bathroom or not.
