Powell did not know about the drone discovery when he addressed UN SC

MSNBC just had a short clip about the Iraqi drone that the London Times wrote about. It seems that...

the copy of the classified UN document that Powell was reading from when he gave his SC talk did not include the pages referring to the chemical spraying drone that the UN had recently discovered.

Blix said the copy Powell had was only a draft.

Yeah right. Both the draft and Blix's speech overlooked one of the most significant discoveries by the inspectors. Iraq has an previously unknow program to develop chemical srpaying drones.

As far as I am concerned Blix should quit now. He stacked the deck at a critical time.

...does make you wonder if an unknown someone is paying Blix off doesn't it?

Do you know what country Blix is from? Please tell me it's not Belgium.

These 'inspectors' couldn't find their butts with both hands.

The UN is not only irrelevant...they cheat and they are now siding with the enemy...so they are the enemy too...give them 48 hours to get out.

I'd bet it's some veeerryyy interesting reading; with everything that got left out.

If anyone finds it ping me, I'd love to read it!

[Howlin]

I'm really getting tired of all this BS. Is there NOTHING they won't do in furtherance of their "world order" agenda???

[Howlin]

I am very anxious for ALL this to be over because I want to read the BOOKS about this and find out WHO SOLD US OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!

UPI and reuters have the story. But I haven't seen it making front page anywhere. Amazing, absolutely amazing.

One theory is that Kofi Annan doesn't want war and is chummy with France, et al, and purposely chose Hans Blix because he knew he'd come down on Kofi's side.

Remember that our UN dues pay the salaries of Annan and Blix.

Snow better act like a man tomorrow.

[Howlin]

Over here!

[Catspaw]

I'm up--and I'll tape, just in case I fall back to sleep :-))

FNC had stats on that and it was 22 percent of their operating budget...

These 'inspectors' couldn't find their butts with both hands.

Apparently they haven't learned much in the last twelve years. Did you see post #66.

Sure hope Brit will be on to participate in the questioning; although Tony may be a little "soft" at times, I think Powell will have his say and then some.

[Becki]

Isn't he from Sweden?

I think you're right. Maybe I've just got Belgium on the mind from previous threads.

Thank you!!

Hey, some British CBS reporter said yesterday that she is hearing from ordinary Iraqis that they want the U.S. to go in now so this can get completed instead of being held up in the U.N.
