Monica Crowley on Fox & Friends this morning: underground facility at nuclear complex was built by the Russians. Suspected bio truck found by Marines and reported by Fox's Rick Leventhal was sold to Iraq by France. Half of intelligence says Saddam is dead; other half says he is alive. Very reliable people tell her he is dead and has been dead for quite awile. Some third country has been helping run things in Iraq. She strongly hints that it is Russia.

They probably paid for it on a Swiss credit card.

Wow... one of the prisons they explored had a capicity of 15,000 prisoners. It was empty. I think he said that was the same prison where we found the pieces of our POW's uniforms.

I wouldn't be surprised, since the Russians kept their embassy staff there until the lasrt minute. There had to be a reason for that and it wasn't just to observe our tanks up close and personal.

I wonder if the Iraqi "command and cobtrol" communications went down the same time their ambassadore left town or shortly thereafter? They also left some wounded in a local hospital after the convoy incident - I wonder where those folks were when the tanks rolled in, I wonder where they arenow?

I also wonder if the French embassy kept its staff there, too?
