The missing explosives play right into this story, as well. If we resolved to prevent Saddam from possessing deadly weapons, than why in the hell did the UN allow these 1000's of tons of explosives to remain in Iraq. Even worse, instead of destroying them, they allowed them to be stored, so Saddam could have access to them as dual-use material.

Which have now been shipped to our other enemies in the region thanks to Russia (who enjoyed diplomatic cover...no wonder we fired on their 'diplomatic' convoys in Iraq!!!). I would really like to know why the Bush admin. is being hush-hush about this. Condi Rice was asked about this by Laura Ingraham on the radio yesterday...she denied having any knowledge of the Russians assisting Saddam smuggle his weapons/explosives out of Iraq. What are they worried about I wonder?
