I am with you 100%! I heard someone today on one of the shows say that France is no longer one of our allies and I agree -- they are not!

WoW! You are busy tonight.
This is absolutely disgraceful, and as for firing
any one who knew and went along with this,
how about the the whole U.N. sans the U.S. and
Briton!! I hope Powell hammers on this tomorrow
morning.

I think this is a different drone than from those small ones; this one has a 25 foot wingspan and can travel to other countries.

I wish they were interviewing Jack Straw as well.
I came on tonight to check my email and see what the latest was. I haven't left my computer since -- first RNC and then I hear the reports about the drones!

Bottom line: Blix did not hand six pages over of new information -- instead he buried that information that led to having 173 pages. Who else do we know that can make documents disappear and reappear when they think no one is watching?
To: PhiKapMom
Blix is the ultimate beauracrat. He's been waiting to see which way the wind is blowing on the Security Council so he could appease the eventual winning side and keep his damn job.
What a loser. Even his ex-boss from his home country says he's a nice guy but sucks up and is too soft.
He related the story about Blix and the defector that contacted him.
Blix burned the defector and when he was asked about the defector Blix stated, "I could think of a more elegant way to contact the inspection team".
That about says it all for Blix.
To: PhiKapMom
Blix is a stooge for the EU, principally Chiraq and Shroeder. They should all be tried for crimes against humanity. And that would be lenient, IYGMM.
To: Howlin
Get the US out of the UN, and the UN out of the US.
Of course, that one is about 40 years old, but how about the "communist and cannibal" club.
GWB, is going to put these losers that we support with $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ in the dumpster before this is all over - if we can get some more support with Conservatives in the Senate in the future.

Thanks, appreciate it. I actually have been checking it since Wednesday or so when I heard Howie saying that his poll should be "FReeped". I logged on, saw the information available, and now I'm hooked! I've always thought we should go into Iraq, but didn't have a lot of background or education to support my opinion. Well, I've found a wealth of knowledge, and now I can support my views!
To: big ern
Blix is the ultimate beauracrat This is way beyond a "beauracratic snaffu". This is criminal negligence.
Why?
To: Howlin
I think you are right -- these are larger than what I remember Powell was briefing. That makes it even worse for them not to tell us about them! They must have thought the US and UK were pretty stupid to give them a 173 page final report and not expect us to find out about the drones when they were looking for what was added to go from 167 to 173. Then they bury the drone info inside the report!
Disgraceful!

To: LaraCroft
I would sincerely hope the the US is not relying on the UN or the inspectors for information of this kind. Our people should have uncovered this for themselves.
Maybe they did and just couldn't bring it up because it wasn't in the published reports, but if they didn't, its a wake up call to get on their toes.
Please read Post #8, above, WE did find this out and it was reported on by FOX NEWS, the President even mentioned it in a speach. The fact that it didn't get out in the "main steam media" is the fault of the "main-stream media" and their duplicitous reporting, boardering on treasonous lies. Keeping secrets is their choice, maybe you should make FOX NEWS your choice.

Thanks for the report on Blix. The London Times reporter said that Blix was too scared to brief this information.
Then Blix should not have been leading the inspection team IMO if he was a wimp!

Blix lied to the Security Council on Friday. This information was not furnished to Powell or Straw until later which is now being reported on NBC, MSNBC, and Fox.Either you are with us or you are with the terrorists. I guess there's no longer the tiniest shred of doubt about where blix has placed his loyalties.

You know sometimes all it takes is just a strong sense of what's right and what's wrong... sounds like to me, you, like Bush are alike in that sense...

I know it's moot but there must be an outcry for Blix to resign.
To: blam
They will not try to use the drones to poison our troops in Iraq, they'll use them on us here in the US. Remember those reports of someone possibly shipping drones into the US some time back? Yes I remember those reports ..
