WMD Curiosity Lapse

"Week after week after week after week," said Sen. Ted Kennedy, Massachusetts Democrat, about President Bush's rationale for going to war with Iraq, "we were told lie after lie after lie after lie." Were we?

Jordan recently seized 20 tons of chemicals trucked in by confessed al Qaeda members who brought it in from Syria. The chemicals included VX, Sarin and 70 others. But the media seem curiously incurious whether one could reasonably trace this stuff back to Iraq. Had the terrorists released a "toxic cloud," Jordanian officials say 80,000 would have died.

What does Sheila Jackson-Lee(D-Tex) know about WMD in Syria and when did she know it?

I simply hope that these three alleged sites in Syria have continuous, 24 hour a day surveillence so whatever is buried there doesn't turn up missing.

Does anyone have a solid info on Loftus? I've heard him on the radio with John Bachelor (sp?) with some interesting connections with Iraq, Korea and Libya and WMD.

Just now, missed most of an interview on Fox, he was talking about Hans Blix people notifying Sadaam of upcoming inspection locations. Same thing Colin Powell told the UN.
Said Blix was going to look mighty foolish when all of this comes out.

Because our "free press" identifies more with the enemy than with the USA?

I wish these guys had released at least some of the chemical weapons in Jordan (Please forgive me God for this thought),

No need to ask for forgiveness. Its very likely had they tried to deliver it, it would have "blown up in their faces" so to speak. I.E., they would have killed themselves and nobody else.

I contend that the world is littered with idiot terrorists that didn't know how to deliver their product except to kill themselves.

"Kinda strange they rediscovered the alleged prisoner abuse just in time to take the very heavy heat off Gorelick and the 9-11 Commission. Seems to have saved her arse for the time being. < /sarcasm>"


Wasn't it May 7 that Monsoor Ijaz (sp?) was to testify...and didn't he want to have it televised? So much for ANY info about his testimony.

It also took some of the steam out of Dick Morris's new book" Rewirting History. I have just gotten through the first chapter, and he really lays it all out.
