c'mon, guys, come on in and defend Debka.

I have never gone on record defending Debka... I know nothing about them.

Way late - but FWIW, the deapwater port I refered to was Gwadar (I don't know where I got Anwar from)!
The port has some valuable strategic value in terms of access to shipping lanes and the proposed Central Asia Oil Pipeline will run to the port (see Black Jade's post).

You said this in a previous Debka thread:

I can't understand why intelligent people can't weigh internet info for what it's worrth, and instead feel the need to denigrate, defame, and dismiss out of hand.

In Debka's case, there is a good reason to denigrate, defame and dismiss what they write...

I can't understand why intelligent people can't weigh internet info for what it's worth, and instead feel the need to denigrate, defame, and dismiss out of hand.

This is an argument against knee-jerk close-mindedness...the kind I see on every Debka thread. It is not an argument defending Debka.

In fact, I only remember one of their stories which had to do with thousands of Chinese troops moving toward Afghanistan. Obviously, their record is less than stellar...

American armed forces in Afghanistan are in a race against the weather, too. The heavy snows expected around Dec. 10 to 12 will make their task almost impossible, forcing them to wait for the spring thaw.

Time to revisit this story. The weather on the news broadcasts looks pretty good today - what happened to all the heavy snow? Why has the mission not changed to what Debka said - they are still hunting bin Laden, not stopping the search. And I haven't seen any hazmat suits in the reports from Tora Bora. This story is officially BUNK.

All I can say is that you gave it more benefit of the doubt than I ever did before declaring it bunk. Maybe you didn't see the sensational story the Debka ran on the Iraqi invasion of Jordan. Maybe you didn't notice their report on the spectacular palace coup in Saudi Arabia with the royal family fleeing the country.

Debka not only has no regard for the truth, but they don't even base their stories on it. They flat out make stuff up.

This particular story is completely bogus, but I'm not sure it even makes their Top 10 of Amazing Whopping Lies.
