I have no idea, unless it got banned and all it's posts were pulled, which is what I understand happens when one is banned.

"Our people should have uncovered this for themselves."
They have and presented it to the UN and then Blix comes out and says we're lying...
Well I guess in this case, we weren't...
The quote above was not by me, I was responding to it.

Reminds me of the people that call Rush and tell him they have listend all those years and then proceed to trash Republicans and Rush. Seminar Callers -- maybe we have seminar posters now!

Thanks for the clarification... Next time to make it easier don't forget the quotes please...
To: Howlin
Foxnews has a show on now that says this drone is the one Powell mentioned flying around in circles that has a range of 300 kilometers (within easy range of Israel and where the US troops are in theater), that Iraq denied having. It was not mentioned in the 167 page report Blix distributed before his presentation, but was added and buried in an amended 173 page report distributed after the meeting. He clearly didn't want it discussed in the meeting because he feared it would serve as fodder for war, and Blix doesn't want war. And that's the poop.

If they simply disliked Bush but supported the policy, they could keep fairly quiet. If they didn't like the current policy and had changed their minds, they would be explaining WHY they changed their minds. Instead, they are acting as nuts as Scott Ritter, whicih leads me to believe they are as compromised as he is.I fear at the end of the day we will discover that the US has been betrayed by some at home who at one time swore an oath to defend this nation.
I wonder if this will end up with the equivalent of the Nuremburg Trials?

Have you seen the thread that says that the UN is investigating us for spying?

Remember those reports of someone possibly shipping drones into the US some time back? It would be easy to ship them. I'd load 'em in a container with a bunch of other stuff. Zillions of containers enter the US every day; impossible, for practical reasons, to search them all.

Well, MSNBC had people on that said just the opposite. I wish we could get a CLARIFICATION, but I guess we'll not have a clarification of anything concerning this war.
For instance, both Chris Matthews and Pat Caddel said on Chris' show tonight that the Bush administration and Powell had "manufactured" evidence about nuclear weapons in Iraq and they both quoted a Wash Post article from today and said that it was equivalent to the Gulf of Tonkin resolution because we FABRICATED the information.
However, if you actually READ the Wash Post article, it says NO SUCH thing......it clearly says that we were just as duped as Blair was and that we gave it to Blix "in good faith."
I'm sick of the lot of them, to be honest.

Actually it started as the Whitewater Bulletin Board on Prodigy in '94, I think it was. There were a lot of complaints about Prodigy censoring posts. When people started going to ISPs Jim Robinson started this site and invited everyone to move over here.

The Foxnews program had a Brit on who seemed pretty authoritative about the discrepancy between the 167 page report and the 173 page report. Who did MSNBC have on?

This article does NOT help my thought process either. We may very well be being sandbagged.
