The incompetence of US government propaganda operations in this war has been staggering - I'm not sure any government at war has ever been so cowardly, so unable to structure and press home a narrative, in the history of the world.
And don't start going on about the MSM - there's a reason FDR signed EO 8985 on December 19, 1941, establishing press censorship for the duration, and why he signed EO 9182 on June 14, 1942 creating a 24/7 government propaganda operation.

Russia Moved Iraqi WMD
Moscow Moved Weapons to Syria and Lebanon http://archive.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2005/3/2/230625.shtml
So does anyone really know what time it is?
Further question: Will any of this have any effect whatsoever on the morons who are still pasting "Bush Lied / People Died" stickers all over my neighborhood?

Document http://70.168.46.200/Released/07-24-06/ISGQ-2005-00022470.pdf that was written sometimes after the Iraq war talks about an Iraqi dissident named Abu Abdallah who says that Iraqi WMD were moved to Syria before the war on the month of 10 Mouharam (Islamic calendar) i.e. March 10. The document was apparently reviewed by the Department of Defense as you the word D.O.D (in Latin letters) written on the side of the document.

ubject: We have information about the location of the Weapons of Mass Destruction
In the day of 10 Mouharam before the coalition forces started the war on Iraq, 50 trucks for land transportation entered Syria on an intermittent convoy. I met some of the drivers and they did not know what they carried in these trucks. These trucks were loaded from an unknown location in Baghdad and was brought to the drivers and the Iraqi Intelligence was with them. Each time they crossed a certain distance, the Iraqi Intelligence stopped them and asked them what are they carrying and their answer was we do not know. And when these trucks arrived to Syria in the area of Deir Al Zour the drivers were taken out of their trucks and the Syrian Intelligence ride instead. These trucks were entered into large warehouses and when these trucks were emptied it was given back to the Iraqi drivers. And they were given a reward worth of 200 dollars for the safety of arrival. One of the drivers mentioned to me that this was second time they carry these secrets loads and the first time was 1 Mouharam.
I have a friend in Syria who works in a Syrian company as partner with a Syrian merchant. This person is an Iraqi ex-Consul in the Iraqi embassies and he resigned from the diplomatic circle and he has strong connection with the Iraqi Embassy in Syria and he knows all the Iraqi Intelligence and those knows that I work for the Iraqi opposition in Syria. I was visiting him daily during this period to find out the important news. When the trucks entered Syria I went to him and told him that Iraqi Weapons entered Syria so he said to me who told you that and I said to him I knew from my sources, and he told me to keep this confidential and not tell anyone because it indeed entered.

If Channel 2 is correct and such a report does materialize, it will mean that we now have extensive evidence of Saddam’s support for Jihadist terrorists (Institute for Defense Analyses report) and authoritative, official documentation of WMD.
I don’t see how the Bush admin can not but be compelled to conduct an information offensive to rehabilitate his legacy in the face of Moveon.org and all the seditionists.

WASHINGTON TIMES.com - Editorial: "TEHRAN'S MURDEROUS ROLE" (EDITORIAL SNIPPET: "Bill Roggio, who blogs from Iraq and Afghanistan for the Longwarjournal.org, notes that Iraqi intelligence officials have said that senior Hezbollah military commander Imad Mugniyah, who was slain in Damascus two months ago, helped form the Mahdi Army in April 2003 after the fall of Saddam Hussein; some 300 fighters recruited from Kuwait and Saudi Arabia underwent military training with Hezbollah in Lebanon.")

Furthermore, according to a report leaked to the TV channel, Syria has arrested 10 intelligence officials following the assassination of Hizbullah terror chief Imad Mughniyeh.
