"The MSM won't find this to be significant. For one thing, they are too distracted by the death of their hero."

The Old Media are really layin it on thick about the "noble" Arafat's death. The coverage is positively sickening. (I pray the ratings suffer because of it. Everyone I have spoken with today agree it is too much coverage for such a devious and disgusting person.)

Arafat was a murdering terrorist who never once wanted peace with Israel. He and his Islamofascist ilk wanted the Jews annihilated and Israel demolished. Nobel Peace Prize winner, my hinney!

What a sleazy piece of vermin he was. A lying, corrupt despotic cretin to the end. (The civilized world should be dancing in the streets, handing out sweets.) I'm sure Jimmy Carter and the Left are shedding tears and mourning this evil idiot's demise.

oh come on!! It's just .... foot powder! Yeah! That's it! It's foot powder! There's no WMD! (rolling my eyes)

you obviously didn't read the article.
NPR REPORTS SARIN GAS

It's not foot powder, it's a gas so it's gotta be nitrous oxide. You know, so the dentists can do their job. </sarcasm>

confronting an insurgent force that has renewed energy

It's simply amazing how the adrenaline flows when your back is against the wall and the United States Marine Corps is knocking on the front door...

"Knock Knock"
"Who's there?"
"The Marines"
"Oh shit, we're dead meat."
"Buh bye"

Like Limbaugh says, the OLD MEDIA claims that the new hispanic Attorney G was the architect of the Abu Ghraib abuses, but the same OLD MEDIA of today steadily praises Arafat.

Something is seriously twisted here!!!

American Jews that voted for John Kerry and the "traitor" Democrat Party are in serious mourning tonight over the death of Yassar Arafat! I have heard that they are planning a massive memorial this weekend in Palm Beach, Florida for Arafat in concert and sponsered by Harvey Weinstein and Michael Moore. I have also heard that Jimmy Carter will eulogize Mr. Arafat at the ceremony. Special praise will be bestowed on Arafat by Carter and misguided Jews for his being a premier leader in the bombing, slaughter and murder of innocent Israeli women and children. The left wing of the Demcorat Party will be represented in hugh fashion with the attendance of Barbra Streisand, Bill Maher, Whoopie Goldberg, Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Terry McAuliffe, and most of all Hillary Clinton. Ms. Clinton is attending because Mrs. Arafat has been invited, and Hillary does not want to miss another opportunity to kiss her in public. Developing......

"Almost every single mosque we've come through has been used for weapons storage and insurgent military training," says Lt. Col. Ramos.

This won't get much play in the MSM, but that fact that an F-18 dropped a 500 pounder on one of the Mosques, dropping both minarets being used as sniper platforms, will. Without the "sniper" part of the story, or at least playing it down maybe writing "alleged" snipers, of course.

Yeah, not only twisted, but oh, so, obvious as to where the Old Media's bias lies. And still the Old Media types deny their anti-American, pro-terrorist slant...

"What saved us is they did not store it properly or handle it properly."

They had a bit to do with it if the night vision goggles, jamming equipment and former Soviet military sdvisors to Saddam (all substandard) are any indication.

We've chased that rabbit before. Let's take a deep breath until someone in authority gives out the official word.

We neither NEED nor WANT to be hoping for this.

Yeah it sucks, doesn't it? Russia is a quasi ally because of Beslin, etc.

It would be much nicer if it were FRance instead.

Actually, I think Bush is going to improve relations even more with Putin and Russia. I see the next four years as having the potential to bring America and Russia closer than we've ever been.

The test kits, if that's what they were, are probably just the old Warsaw Pact gear. The reason they have sample vials is to test the equipment to make sure it's working. Some of these detection products are paper, like litmus paper apparently. Others are chemical compounds. I assume they include the sarin samples to determine if the kit is still accurate in measuring sarin contamination.

As far as France, I'd be surprised if they didn't have a hand in it somewhere. However, the Soviets were always the main advocates and developers of chemical warfare agents and gear like these kits. Given how cheap Russian stuff is and the vast quantities they always produced, it would be somewhat surprising if the kits were anything except Soviet equipment.
