Gee maybe the sign out front said "Baby Milk Plant" and that's why the UN inspectors missed it--I think the Iraqis had that sign left over from the last Gulf war.

The "inspectors" were never meant to find anything of significance..

The goal of the U.N. was to STALL and DELAY until the French, Germans, Russians and their allies the Islaminazis - could bring America to her knees with horrible acts of terrorism against us.

This war in Iraq should be thought of as...the beginning of WWIII.

This sides have been identified..
The enemy has "played their hands"..
Our friends have identified themselves...
WE SHOULD LONG REMEMBER THESE PAST FEW MONTHS......

Time to be strong and resolute.

Semper Fi

Ok, AP finally reporting! This is HUGE!

BUT: what indications are there that this factory was being used to manufacture chemical ?

Well, for one -- why else would it be guarded by the military and two generals? And why would it be camouflaged if it were not manufacturing chemical weapons?

Folks, this is great news, leaving egg on the faces of France, Germany, Russia and China, the Demonrats, the anti-war protestors . . . It will be fun to watch 'em all backpeddle like the cheese-eating surrender monkeys they are!

Finally some good news after a rough news day.

Use Blix to test the chemicals on himself. If he dies they are real.

I think 2010 is a little generous... Maybe if we send him to North Korea today, he could start looking for nukes...

Anyone think that Tom Daschole will have an excuse for this? Will he accuse Bush of "planting" this? Will he follow the Baghdad line? Whose side is he on anyway?

"If the plant is confirmed as a chemical weapons factory..." That is not a very strong statement. I have followed this all day, from the Jerusalem Post to Fox and now to AP. Be careful not to read more into this than the facts allow. I do hope we nail down some chemical weapons facilities and personnel ASAP, but this is NOT conclusive yet. I hope we find them before some are used, which I think could happen in the next 24-48 hours, because of our proximity to the capital. I don't want our guys to get sucked in and then #$%^ on.

Well.....since America is notorious for bombing aspirin and baby milk factories...plus an occasional Red Cross facility or two... they had no choice. /sarcasm
