I don't remember the incident you are asking about with the Russian envoy on the road to Syria.

I'm pretty surprised at how tone deaf politically Negroponte is about the tapes and the value of Americans hearing them.

It's vital, imo. Absolutely vital to the success of the war on terror.

I remember it distinctly. The Russians claimed it was the ambassador to Iraq, but nobody bought that. The car was completely taken out, it was one of several that were traveling together almost to the Syrian border. I remember thinking at the time that the reason it was so quickly hushed up was because there was a possibility of them being rogue elements within the Russian government.

Everytime I think about the WMDs, I remember that convoy. They weren't trucks, just cars, but for some reason that always sticks in my mind.
