Amb Mark Ginsberg Contradicts HansBlix "No Smoking Gun": Inspectors have NOT visited Military Sites
Fox News ^ | 9 Jan 03 | Amb Mark Ginsberg

Posted on 01/09/2003 9:36:58 AM PST by xzins

Ambassador Ginsberg clearly spells out how big a coward and liar Hans Blix is.

He says that Blix has not visited even one military site. Therefore, the "no smoking gun" claim is a LIE!! Blix "might" visit an Air Force Base next week.

Ginsberg asks the obvious question: WHO WOULD HAVE POSSESSION OF WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION? He says it would be the military.

This is obvious. If you have chemical rounds, they would be with an artillery unit. If you have bio/chem warheads for missiles, they'd be with missile units.

DID THE UN NEGOTIATE A DEAL THAT PERMITS THE IRAQI MILITARY TO BE OFF-BASE FOR INSPECTIONS?

Ginsberg says it's silly to visit a "baby food factory" and not visit an artillery unit.

Makes incredible sense to me!!

As I think about it, this ties directly into Aziz statement yesterday about "inspectors trying to determine the status of military forces" and calling inspectors "spies."

If the agreement permitted close inspection of any military unit, then he couldn't safely make that statement.

He's setting the stage for complaining about national security IF the inspectors get pressured to visit ANY/ALL military sites.

Can anyone tell me how we can determine if there are missile capable warheads if inspectors DO NOT OR CAN NOT thoroughly inspect missile units, launchers, all support units, and all paper and electronic trails/tracks?

Admittedly, I am the worst "strategist" on this forum. And what you said makes sense to me.

It's ridiculous to say you've looked for WMD when you don't even look in the most obvious places.

I don't have any weapons here at my house, do you?

Well...yes...I do

But NO WMD's. LOL!!

Special weapons are a big deal with our US military. Aviation, Artillery, Air Force.

They don't store them with Gerber's Baby Foods.

Well "technically" it's not a lie .. if Blix and the Inspector's don't go there, then the don't see it and they don't know anything about it

Democrats do that all the time .. if they don't read an article or a report they can't claim to know anything about it .. The files Ken Star lock up in the Ford Building comes to mind

This is such an old game

There's not much point in finding WMD prior to us being ready to do something about it. That appears to be at least 4 or 5 weeks from now at the earliest.

There may be more method to this lunacy than appears to the casual eye.

Of course not! They've been telling Blix where to go. Plus Blix doesn't WANT to find any weapons. He's got his story and he's sticking to it.

What you say makes sense.

The problem is that it gives Iraq a leg up in the propaganda war.

Helen Thomas (commie Helen) is playing it up big at a press conference on FoxNews right now.

Last time, Saddam wouldn't let any inspecters into the presidential palaces...

This time, the inspecters are not even asking, let alone demanding to look at them...
