GERTZ // THURSDAY // WASH TIMES: Russian special forces troops moved many of Saddam Hussein's weapons and related goods out of Iraq and into Syria in the weeks before the March 2003 U.S. military operation, The Washington Times has learned. John A. Shaw, the deputy undersecretary of defense for international technology security, said in an interview that he believes the Russian troops, working with Iraqi intelligence, “almost certainly” removed the high-explosive material that went missing from the Al-Qaqaa facility, south of Baghdad.

On Hannity and Colmes, Dick Morris just pronounced Kerry the loser because of his vile attack on Bush and the Army for "losing 400 tons of deadly weapons." Morris says it's over and Kerry has hanged himself by again trashing the military in his greed for public office. Morris also believes that in the next month or two the NY Times and CBS will take mortal hits.

I hope the reason that we haven't called Russia, France, and Germany out is because W told them all that any further nonsense would be dealt with accordingly.

I don't know, but I can't really envision a plausible scenario in which we would actually threaten Russia in that manner, at least not this decade.

will the real October surprise be the fact that WMD were also in those trucks? Putin has already came through by connecting Saddam with planning terrorist attacks against the U.S. before the war (although the MSM seem to have not noticed). Maybe he will come out and say they moved the WMD to ensure they would not be used against us (I know its B.S. but it gives a prospective ally an out). I can dream that the poker game is almost over for Kerry because he got out bluffed and outbid himself.

Debka reported something similar about the Russian convoy heading toward Syria with all of Iraq's WMDs before the war started.

Would kind of make Putin's call for a UN investigation of the Qaqaa missing explosives, a preemptive strike, not? LOL
