I think the folks on Fox and friends are confused- the tale that there were UN seals on it was made up by people who aren't even there trying to explain away what the Marines found and saw. Since they know the IAEA left some sealed low grade stuff- not plutonium of course- around way back when, the naysayers are trying to say that what was found was the same stuff, but as far as is known, no one but the soldiers and reporter on site know what was found and everything else is speculation. The IAEA didn't even know there was a big underground facility there- they heard rumors but that's it. So obviously anything that was in storage below they wouldn't know about or be able to seal.

Wasn't David Kay the US choice to be Chief Inspector but he got nixed by Russia's, China's and France's choice--Hans Blix? He's the one who said yesterday that they didn't find an underground facility there.

Arrrrggghhh! BBC complaining now about anarchy and why aren't Bush and Blair helping. Beeb Dweeb in Baghdad saying our troops aren't THAT busy, so they really ought to stop the looting.

That is also my take on it. Need coffee to think. Thanks for expressing it so well.

...anything that was in storage below they wouldn't know about or be able to seal.

There are two other choices you know. They knew damn good and well and said nothing. Or they didn't want to know. My money's on either or both of those two choices.

I agree, and I was saying that to my husband yesterday. News reports are saying that the Marines broke the seal on these. Do you really think the Marines are going to go in and say...duh..it says UN Inspected..let's open it anyway? Since these "experts" aren't there, they are only speculating, and the AP (first to put out the spin), FOX, and the other channels need to hold off saying it was all preinspected stuff until they know.
