Leftist members of Congress know damn well where Saddam's WMD wound up yet continue beating this dead horse issue for political mileage against the White House, in effect assisting the enemy, but what else is new?
Note: Saddam's WMD were strategically 'withdrawn" from Lebanon thinking some of these weapons of mass murder will be used against Israel, which will severely backfire on Damascus in the next war.
When Syrian troops were returned to Syria, Damascus left numerous Syrian secret police agents who continue operating with the Iranian & Syrian backed Hizballah Islamic death cultists.
The recovery of the advanced Russian MiG fighter is considered to be an intelligence coup by the U.S. Air Force.. The Foxbat may also be equipped with advanced Russian- and French-made electronics that were sold to Iraq during the 1990s in violation of a U.N. ban on arms sales to Baghdad.
The buried Russian aircraft at Al Taqqadum were covered in camouflage netting, sealed and, in many cases, had their wings removed before being buried more than 10 feet beneath the Iraqi desert.
The discovery of the buried Iraqi jet fighters illustrates the problem faced by U.S. inspection teams searching Iraq for weapons of mass destruction. Iraq is larger in size than California, and the massive deserts south and west of Baghdad were used by Saddam Hussein to hide weapons during the first Gulf war.
U.S. Air Force recovery teams had to use large earth-moving equipment to uncover the MiG, which is over 70 feet long and weighs nearly 25 tons.
The (Soviet) Russian built Foxbat is known to be one of Iraq's top jet fighters. The advanced electronic reconnaissance version found by the U.S. Air Force is currently in service with the Russian air force.
The MiG is capable of flying at speeds of over 2,000 miles an hour, or three times the speed of sound, and at altitudes of over 75,000 feet.
Any further questions on why Putin was so vehemently opposed to American led Coalition forces overthrowing Saddam's dictatorship?
