On Brit Hume just now they were talking about this missing explosives scandal and they said that the US was notified of the need to guard these specific weapons well after occupation by ..I forget who...anyway I wonder if this thing...in light of the remarks of Canada's Prime Minister about WMD's, is designed to put the blame on Bush for the terrorists having WMD

" If the media wanted the truth, they don't need DOD imagery. There are European sources that will sell imagery to anybody.

Well, not if you want to be time-specific. Unless you ask in advance, and it's a little late for that.

Hey, no problem, I'll fight for your rights - including your right to be wrong and confuse people...but you're 'opinions' about Socialism/Communism/Fascism/Left/Right have VERY LITTLE basis in reality, if any...

My point was that the far end of the Left is anarchy, and the far end of the Right is fascism.

Oddly as the American Conservative & Libertarian thinking goes for minimal government vs the American Liberal & World Socialist thinking the more government and government control of people the better... I suggest it's...far Right is anarchy, Left is fascism..... in the truest meanings of the words anarchy & fascism

If this is freerepublic, then I assume you're for freedom of speech. I have no problem with your opinions on my opinions.
It is not a matter of opinion, you are simply wrong about some basics. Listen when people are trying to explain things to you.

How? If they are 10ton trucks and there are about 300 tons missing that's approx. 28 trucks!

George Bush today:

“After repeatedly calling Iraq the ‘wrong war,’ and a ‘diversion,’ Senator Kerry this week seemed shocked to learn that Iraq was a dangerous place, full of dangerous weapons. The Senator used to know that, even though he seems to have forgotten it over the course of the campaign, but after all that’s why we’re there. Iraq was a dangerous place run by a dangerous tyrant who had a lot of weapons. We have seized or destroyed more than 400,000 tons of munitions, including explosives, and more than — thousands of different sites, and we’re continuing to round up more weapons everyday.

“I want to remind the American people, if Senator Kerry had his way, we would still be taking our 'global test.' Saddam Hussein would still be in power. He would control all those weapons and explosives and could have shared them with our terrorist enemies.

“Now the Senator is making wild charges about missing explosives when his top foreign policy adviser admits, quote, 'we do not know the facts.' Think about that. The Senator's denigrating the action of our troops and commanders in the field without knowing the facts. Unfortunately, that's part of a pattern of saying almost anything to get elected — like when Senator Kerry charged that our military failed to get Osama bin Laden at Tora Bora, even though our top military commander, General Tommy Franks, said the Senator's understanding of events does not square with reality, and our intelligence reports placed bin Laden in any of several different countries at the time. Our military is now investigating a number of possible scenarios including that the explosives may have been moved before our troops even arrived at the site. This investigation is important and it's ongoing — and a political candidate who jumps to conclusions without knowing the facts is not a person you want as your Commander in Chief."
