I guess you missed Colin Powell at the UN in late 2002 showing satellite photos of convoys of trucks leaving known Iraq WMD sites and headed toward the Syrian border.

The source is new, but we have "known" this for some time, just no way to prove it without invading Syria.

Who cares? Vice President Cheney's friend was injured by birdshot. This is a National Security issue. Cheney must resign and Halliburton must be broken up.

That shows you where the priorities lie on the left. They are not to be trusted for our security

Guess he doesn't know you have to have the VRWC/FR decoder ring for the credibility meter to work.

You use quotation marks very aptly. We "knew" quite a lot back then.

So, he gassed all those Kurds, and embarked on a well-known program to acquire more and varied WMD, had nuclear material stockpiled and catalogued by Hans Blix and his jokers, and you think it is all a put-on? Even though he kept breaking the U.N. resolutions and kept shooting at our folks in the no-fly zones, then had a chance to avoid invasion by coming clean, he all of a sudden decided to actually destroy his stuff and become compliant with U.N. demand, but wouldn't allow us to verify it?

Surely you see that it takes a much bigger leap of faith to take your position than to believe that he actually had (many times documented) WMD and would have taken steps to protect them by moving them out like he did his Air Force (such as it was) by sending it to Iran during Gulf War I?

Been brainwashed into believing that something has to appear in the New York Times or the Washington Post in order for it be true?

That was recalled baby milk heading back to the syrian factories. Didn't you get the public notice?

I'd like to see them beg to see the transcripts of the interview of the former Iraqi's that say that the WMD's we thought were in IRAQ were moved to Syria. REally. WTF? I want to physically abuse David Gregory.

yup credibility meter either isn't working or something about this stinks.

Idea: just ask syria if they got any WMDs from iraq!

this is part of a left wing conspiracy to embarass the US right wing

Hmm… my credibility meter doesn't seem to be registering at all.

I would hope that this claim gets the same level of scrutiny that the fake TANG memos got, otherwise we do come off as being more receptive to things that we want to hear.

I have personally suspected that the WMD were moved to Syria before the shooting started, and based on my extensive contacts within Saddam's inner circle and the Syrian military (irony here, folks) it must be true.

Exactly. A pre-war 1991 invasion iraqi, broke general, needing some ego-stroking from media attention, with supposed contacts in syria claiming whatever. How'sa about he provide us with the targeting of the facilities of where they are in israel? Otherwise, he needs to open a mercedes dealership in dubai and disappear.
