Kerry Flip-flops on Missing WMDs

**While the Washington press corps seems to have missed it, WABC Radio's Steve Malzberg has been playing a clip of Sen. John Kerry in his biggest flip-flop yet - showing the presumptive Democratic nominee suddenly admitting that Saddam Hussein's weapons of mass destruction may soon turn up.***
(excerpt)

Doesn't Kerry get some type of National Security brief now that he is the candidate? Anyone think he got a heads up on these shells. According to CNN and FOx the mustard gas was discovered about two weeks ago.

Over a year ago, when the Democrats started their whining about our not finding Saddam’s chemical weapons under cartoon “WMD’s Hidden Here” signs at least one former scientist or officer employed by his regime made a passing remark that Saddam distrusted people so much he’d ordered chemical ordinance to be mixed with normal explosive stocks without distinguishing markings. It was said he didn’t want his men purposely holding back this weaponry, especially if called on to attack Israel. I heard this on a BBC radio report sometime last summer.

U.S. Weapons Inspector David Kay (the good one) submitted as much to Congress and was immediately “pooh poohed” by members who had agendas that didn’t benefit from his findings. The following is from the Heritage Foundation’s October 8, 2003 report on his testimony:

"Iraq's WMD programs spanned more than two decades, involved thousands of people, billions of dollars, and were elaborately shielded by security and deception operations that continued even beyond the end of Operation Iraqi Freedom.”

Digging for the evidence is a Herculean task. For instance, the inspectors have to go through Iraq's huge stocks of conventional weapons as it was the Iraqi practice was to mix unmarked chemical ordinance in with conventional. Now, Iraq has 130 known Ammunition Storage Points, many of which are 50 miles square and hold an estimated 600,000 tons of artillery shells, bombs, etc. Of these vast piles, only 10 have been examined so far.
