btw -- if you went to the fox link on this awhile ago, go back now -- the story has gotten far more detail than i've seen elsewhere.

"CNN won't report this until 2004" With a little luck, CNN will be defunct in 2004. LOL!

CNN NOT reporting this chem factory, also Not telling about the porrible mistake made by the Brit plane our Patriot shot down, by not identifying.
Their bias is so obvious.

Oh I can answer it all right. If they wouldn't found it Blix would have found a way to not put it in his report.

They will accuse the Americans of planting the evidence.I'm sure it was one of our 100 acre inflate-a-factories.

In some areas MSNBC is making an effort to break away from the anti American bias,
Lester Holt did a great job of making the Iraqi ambassador squirm earlier. But some reporter hussy was EMPHATIC in denying the report by the Jerusalem Post. At least Fox waited until it could confirm this before reporting on it. THAT is what makes Fox #1, and the others wannabes.

I like our "inspectors" better. They seem to be more persuasive. <<<Its not that they are better. Its that there are more of them and they have better equipment for finding things,like M1A1 Abrams and Bradleys.</font

If, in the end, it is discovered that it SHOULD have been in Blix report, we should make a large bunch of noise and attention to that fact.
Save for later project, LOL

"Is it a chemical factory or chemical WEAPON factory?"Just heard on the radio it is a Chemical Storage facility. Reporter said what those chemicals are we still don't know.

Generals aren't in charge of chemical factories, but they are in charge of camouflaged (invisible from the air) chemical weapons factories. WIth electrified and booby trapped fences.

Forest Sawyer on MSNBC doesn't believe it!
He says "... let's not start flapping our wings here..." and the administration is under strong pressure to find something.
He got caught 10 minutes earlier saying the Pentagon is not confirming this and then, when it does, it can't be true.
More complete media BIAS in less than 20 minutes!

It's quite obvious that Blix was in cahoots with those nations that wanted no part of this. I wonder which ones were paying him off. Maybe I'm wrong.......but I smell a coon in the wood pile and this is just the beginning

The embedded reporter with this unit happens to be with the Jarusalem Post...I think FoxNews waited until they could get definative confirmation based on their own reporting before going with this - you know there is going to be a certain skeptacisim of a report from the Jarusalem Post in the Arab press, and even a large part of the US press too.Brett Bair said that that's why he hounded the Pentagon all day today, so that he could get confirmation because he said that people would think that the Jerusalem Post would have an agenda.
Per Linda Vester (where's she been anyway?) right now only the Jerusalem Post and Fox News has this story.
