Al Qa Qaa?



Al Caca!

How many flatbed semi-tractor trailers were needed to haul away 251-380 tons? Hauled to where?



Also, without the war, Saddam was free to sell or use the stuff however he wanted. I'd say the war is a wash regarding the status of this stuff.

And no need to prove they actually existed, either. If you can't find them they never existed, right? No matter who thought they did (before they didn't), right? If this much high explosive could just up and disappear, why not the missing WMDs?

A couple of questions:

1. If the IAEA sealed the explosives, and told the US about it, why wouldn't they tell the which building it was in, so no "search" would be required?

2. Who thinks that a dictator, about to go to war, would honor the "seal" of the UN weapons inspectors and just say "Gee, too bad I can't use those explosives in the war"

3. How do they know that the particular explosives they are referring to were not moved and have already been destroyed in one of the other weapons dumps?

On Israeli satellite - photos of HUGE trucks taking stuff into Syria.

I think it's a safe bet some of the stuff from "Al Caca" was in them.
