"It could mean the overthrow of Saddam by his military."

Any coup would be greatly enhanced if the military were to immediately provide protection for the UN inspection teams.Talk about defusing the existing explosive situation and gaining world wide support!

Right after I posted that, Fox reported the scientist was at a different location with the mound.

Fox is reporting now that the scientists where the inspectors went to their homes this morning may be helping a lot!

Israel is getting ready for attack and our troops are there to help them. Doing chemical drills!

“The warheads were in excellent condition and were similar to ones imported by Iraq during the late 1980s. The team used portable X-ray equipment to conduct preliminary analysis of one of the warheads and collected samples for chemical testing,” the statement said.

There was no immediate comment from the Iraqi side.

I wonder if one of the Iraqi Generals we have been e-mailing tipped us off.

you may be right about that - W is NEVER more dangerous than when the Left/Dems/Media think his numbers are heading down. The Underestimated Kid always whacks them right when they think they are getting stride.

Fox is reporting our intelligence is picking up movement of trucks carrying paperwork and other things around the country. Looks like we are getting close. CIA is providing the intelligence directly to UN weapons inspectors.

What's that noise I hear ... tic tic tic tic

The way the Bush -UN resolution is written, this is more than enough evidence to facilitate going in.

"...weapons are binary..."

Great point. You would not store binary weapons in the warhead until hostilities were imminent. Seepage, leaks and deterioration would likely cause many to have a very bad day. The existence of these warheads is real evidence.

I'm at work. Is there any indication as to the caliber of the warheads? The Iraqis possess a very good South African 155 which has excellent range. It also has little use for these warheads to hurl anything other than CW. They're not going to throw smoke or CS with their 155s. Of course if the warheads are missle types that should be the ballgane.

I bet there are more than one general with brothers selling Liquor and Cigs in Detroit and San Diego that would gladly tip the U.S. off to off this madman.

They also said the one warhead has been taken to the lab for further testing.

Yep, starting with Streisand, Asner, Farrell, the whole Norman Lear People for the (un)American Way gang, and the has-been who was married to the formerly hot chick from 'L.A. Confidential'. (Oh, yeah, Alec Baldwin, that's his name. How soon we forget. LOL) Then we could toss in fish-mouth Julia Roberts and her pathetic brother, Sean Penn, and any number of other phony 'artists' from the entertainment industry. In fact, with very few exceptions, why don't we just toss in the ENTIRE entertainment industry. We'll get along just fine without that scurvy bunch of ingrates.

I can just hear the RATZ..."US planted the warheads so W can go to war over oil!" Screeching, delusional RATZ are a TOTAL disgrace to The US, Freedon and the human race.
