He is *surprised* at Powell's assertion Iraq would use chemical weapons against their own peoplePowell should walk out, this is an insult to anyone's intelligence.
Not only have they used chemcal weapons against their own people but they used them several times in Iran and had them loaded for use in the Gulf War I if I recall correctly. This is why they have a general nicknamed "Chemical Ali" and he is called in for the dirty work.

Don't forget, Powell has to brief several of these UN delegations with more classified info (not all of it) but more than we'll see.

Uday Al Taai, Iraqi Ministry of Information on Fox now. What the hell kind of name is that? Sounds like something Buckwheat would try to say. Altay Po'ey!!
To: Dog
Yeah.....news from Baghdad in English. Now why do you suppose that is done? LOL
Kinda reminds us of "Baby Milk Factory", doesn't it?
To: twyn1
"can someone here PLEASE explain what the heck they mean by 'aggresive inspections' ???"They're talking about job security for the irrelevant UN.
Aggression is an American trait, and against the UN charter, according to Hanz Blixie.

Now reading an Op-Ed piece from the NY Times!!!!Now there's a cause for cognitive dissonance. Is this worse for Iraq's credibility or is it worse for the NY Times credibility? Har!

This is one of the clearest arguments against further inspections. I wish Powell had stated this fact more explicitly, but perhaps he didn't want to shame and directly accuse the inspectors of collaborating with Iraq. Because if a person still has a functioning neuron, they do not need Powell spell it out for them. To blow the covers off this sham, all one has to do is ask, "If the UN WMD inspections in Iraq were planned in secret by the UN inspectors, how did the Iraqis know where the inspectors were going next?"
Those who still think that the UN is not collaborating with Saddam need their drool cup changed.

Bill Press on MSNBC just said democrat senators are folding...Joe Biden, Diane Feinstein. "We're going to war", he said.
I hope these democrat senators he's talking about will hit the microphones this afternoon...in time for the evening news.
and on that Senate filibuster promised on another thread, over the nomination of Estrada. What a great day for democrat senators to try and pull this off..while they won't get lots of attention for this blatant display of obstruction.
Uday Altaay - is that Pig Latin? - just spoke at a news conference in Iraq, and reiterated the same garbage. ....although in slightly harsher words.
To: cyncooper; All
Listen everyone......this will move very fast from now on...
We burnt sources today........really burned them.....to get this info out....the War starts within a matter of days..

If the people aren't bad then why didn't they overturn the Nazi party when they rose to power? It's not like the Nazi's were a majority. For the same reason that bubba got 2 terms here. It's going to take a while, but one day America is going to wake up and realize that what we've been experiencing since September 11, 2001 is all part of bubba's legacy. What's going on between us and Iraq didn't start when W took office.
To: Humidston
Powell looked P*ssed when he walked out of the room....
