CIA missed this sign in Arabic too:
All MUNITION AND CHEMICAL TRUCKS:
FORM SINGLE FILE
STAY ON THIS ROAD
WATCH FOR SIGNS

Sorry for the double post.

Road Trip ! The biggest question I have is; if this is true then why haven't they been used against Israel? Do they think Saddam is coming back to claim them? Also if true they've had 8 months to distribute these agents to whomever they want around the world. If this is true it could be very bad, almost series even.

Israeli Intelligence said this months ago. Our CIA is just recognizing this now ?
Our satellites even picked up the Iraqi convoy moving towards Syria, what did the CIA think they were transporting, baby milk ?
Unfreakingbelievable!!!

As if we all couldn't see this latest excuse for not producing a single WMD coming from a mile away. Isn't this where we came in on this? We know they have them but can't prove it. Too funny.What do you think the reason is we haven't found any? That Iraq never had them?
To: FixitGuy
CIA missed this sign... LOL...Plus the trucks were disguised as BeCannes & Mayfleur moving vans hauling the Hussein-al-Tikrit family household goods from the Danger Zone!

LOL!! I guess the rhetoric for Project Bomb Syria wasn't going over very well lately. What to do, what to do? I know, they've got WMDs!!! Personally I figured they were going to be in Iran next...What's the real motive for wanting to bomb Syria?
To: billbears
Because I don't believe Hussein was ever a direct and immediate threat to the safety of these United States? The administration never claimed that Iraq was a direct and imediate threat to the US, and you know that.
I don't have to remind you that the president said that we shouldn't wait until they become a direct and immediate threat. You already know that.
I have to ask myself why someone who knows that insists on repeating the lie anyway.

Yeah, sure it didn't... My thoughts exactly. There's a barnyard ripeness to this story. I haven't been too impressed with these Goestrategy Direct guys, and this story doesn't help much.

Oh sure, I remember the every night last fall watching Fox News hearing the administration's talking heads covering the human rights violations < /sarcasm>. It was WMD all day, all the time. The tons upon tons and liters of WMDs that Hussein was practically handing out like candy to the terrorists was all we heard of.

YOu are correct,miss.
Have the palestinians stopped bombing buses?
Have the Paki muslims stopped blowing up Indians?
And the Indoneasian muslims do we suppose they have given up their intent to murder?
It's coming, and when it does I will feel sorry for innocent muslims that can live in peace with their neighbors, yet they are the owners of the rabid dogs who are mauling us at every turn, and so they will pay the price
incured by the fanatics.
It's coming, all we can do is be aware, be prepared, be armed, and be ready to act.

North Korea could level Soeul without nuclear weapons. They had much of South Korea as a virtual hostage. Meanwhile they are now building weaposn to threaten the region as well as Alaska and Hawaii.

We may not have known how they were deployed on a given day. But the Iraqi commanders in the field had to know--else they couldn't have employed them within 45 minutes. So they couldn't have been buried too deep, and some of the Iraqi military had to know where they were. The more people who know a secret, the less of a secret it is. By now interrogations should have yielded something--why haven't they?
To: billbears
The administration, especially President Bush, repeatedly discussed the human right violations as well as WMD's. The networks, as they do, did cover the WMD angle more because it's more sensational, but you know as well as I do that the rape rooms and torture rooms and the fact that SH used WMDs on his own people and the need to liberate the Iraqi people were discussed over and over again by the administration last year.
In fact, opponents of the war and of the Bush admin often whined that the justification for war with Iraq kept changing. They'd say, "Is it WMD? Is it the human rights violations? Is it to liberate the Iraqi people? Which is it?" In their silly little minds, they thought that there could only be one justification.
Now these same people are pretending that WMD was the only justification given and accuse the admin of only using the human rights violations as an after-the-fact justification.
It would be refreshing to see some of these people just admit the truth, that taking out the Saddam Hussein regime was the right thing to do.
I won't hold my breath.

To: billbears
It really is just disgusting at this point. For any freeper to accept this story (that we just now - all of a sudden realize- that months old intel about "convoys" to the Bekka Valley were the WMD's) is so pathetic that a new word has to be invented.
This is a site that rightfully picked apart Clinton's lies with delight and ease for 8 years. Reading through this thread has been a depressing experience for the most part- the ad hominem's, the non sequiturs, and the hatred displayed for those that don't show blind loyalty to an administration that is neither very conservative domestically and has- at the very least- displayed major cause for concern and questions on foreign policy.
I just don't get it? Where has the healthy natural skepticism of the state gone for many who post here? Bush ain't a sociopath like Clinton but he is still just a politician.

Then all of the sudden, out of the blue, 'intelligence' reports tell us, 'oops, they were moved four months before the war but we just didn't know why all those transfer trucks were moving'? What did they think it was?!?
What about those barges that were floated out into the Indian Sea, I think. They were floating around there somewhere and we were watching them for awhile, then nothing??? It might be a good place to look, for a change?
