That sounds like paradise.
Kerry will continue his phony outrage, and lying in spite of tis news. The RATS; never ones to let facts stand in the way of a divisive issue.
Well if I heard it from ABC then it MUST be true ;-)

me too...
sorry just got back to computer....anyone ever confirm this??
Did anybody else watch ABC and hear this?
pingo!
If they are anything like the seals we used on rail cars & trucks carrying explosives, they are not designed to keep anyone out.
They are somewhat like the braided wire & lead 'seal' on an electric, water, or gas meter, except bigger. They can be broken open, but not reclosed; and they carry a serial number, and only tell you whether someone entered via the door they are "sealing".
Case in point, at USNWS-Concord, I checked the DOD seals & seal numbers on a rail car as intact & correct. I broke a door seal, entered, and commenced a physical count. My supervisor confirmed one full plus a partial case of frag grenades with fuses, were missing, and notified the FBI. The "seals" had been bypassed via entry through the partially open roof vents.
Had anyone wanted to, the "seal" (which was a thin, 1/4 strip of tin-like metal that latches the free end into a closed box on the other end when inserted into a slot) could have been snapped with the twist of a screwdriver blade.
However, by leaving the seals intact, the cars moved through "checkpoints" onto base, then to the waterfront, "still sealed" and so supposedly not pilfered.
Whoever loaded & "sealed" the cars just had to relay the name & number on the car carrying the grenades to an accomplice, & the car coukd be entered at any pont along its route, with no one the wiser, until time ot off-load.
In short, they are a 'tamper indicator' rather than a lock.
BUMP
Do you really think Karl Rove would do something like that? :) Brilliant if you ask me!
Just DAMN Bump!!
find the explosives....lol
I've been trying to see if anything on abcnews.com but no details.
see 125 for third confirmation? We are waiting until 1737 PDT for the report to air again.
it was 380 tons before it was 3 tons....
i merely confirm that they said it... we can only hope it's accurate 8^)
Yes, I saw it. It was at the end of Martha's report, and she said it was late-breaking information -- I assume something she got after voicing her story -- and she mentioned that it was one kind of explosive with letters I don't remember. The first document was, I think, from 2002 (?) and the second one that had the 3 tons was from early 2003, whenever the last IAEA inspection was. I need a transcript too!!
