So far, Marine nuclear and intelligence experts have discovered 14 buildings that betray high levels of radiation. Some of the readings show nuclear residue too deadly for human occupation.

Ignorance is Blix.

It could be reported that every evil, twisted, murderous, torturing, mass destructing, germ weaponized, nerve gas spraying device is discovered in Iraq and liberals won't care.

None of those things can match the evil that is George Bush.

Said Mohammed El Baradei, "Look, we long have been aware of the high levels of radiation emanating from this site, but the Iraqi government assured us this is nothing more than the result of placing an aluminum foil packaged Hungry Man Salisbury Steak dinner into a microwave. The Iraqis showed us the charred remains of the dinner, so we are satisfied this issue is closed."

Yahoo is preventing people from looking at a set of photos from February 2003.

U.N. weapons inspectors, left, and members of the Iraqi National Monitoring Directorate, investigate storage facilities at Al-Tuwaitha, the main site

(Associated Press photographs)

Use the link above or use Google to Web search on "Al-Tuwaitha 2003" and you will see a slew of UN inspector pics with captions like this. When you use Google, you have to look at the "cached" copy because they are supressing the copy normally accessible through the links. I put a direct link to the cached page above.

Just as the name Shemp can be used as a term of disappointment, as in "I got Shemped!". I think the name Blix could be used as a synonym for incompetence.

Is this the complex that the former weapons inspector was describing on the Coast to Coast show about three or four weeks ago? Bill Tierney, right?

So the Marine's discovery makes the former atomic inspector wonder if the Iraqis went to the colossal expense of pumping enough water to build the underground city because no reasonable inspector would think anything might be built underground there.

The one thing the Iraqis are known to be good at is graduating a lot of good civil engineers and building stuff(of course, much of that wasted building palaces and such.) Not implausible they pulled it off themselves.

I believe we'll see a lot of news about this type of stuff now that the regime has fallen. Pray for the Marines exposed to this stuff!!
