You can't beleive that! Russia went in on its own and removed hundreds of thousands of pounds of explosives and the world sat by and didn't say a word. And the US, UK etc... just sat by and watched truck load after truck load of explosives go to stable friendly locations Syria, Lebanon and Iran. You've got to be kidding.
I heard that Santa even participated by flying out a few loads in his sliegh. -----Original Message----- From: Robert Munn [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 27, 2004 9:22 PM To: CF-Community Subject: Re: October Surprise - the short version Here is the latest on this story: US troops got to the site in early April and killed or captured about 200 Iraqi troops- Saddam Fedayeen and Special Republican Guard units- who were positioned inside the compound. US 3rd Infantry Division made a search of the facility and found none of the weapons in question. The Pentagon now apparently has evidence that in the days and weeks before the war, Russian Special Forces troops removed this cache and many other caches of specialized weapons from Iraqi. They were taken to Syria, Lebanon, and perhaps Iran in Russian trucks. This would explain several things about this story: 1. Why didn't the US bomb the trucks moving out of Iraq? Everyone knew that there were trucks moving from Iraq to Syria, it was all visible by satelite. 2. Why did the US government not make a big deal about all the weapons moving out of the country? 3. Why has the administration been slow to talk about these missing weapons? It all comes down to diplomacy. My theory is that the US government knew that Russian troops- and the Russian government- were involved in the operation all along, and we basically had no choice but to look the other way. http://www.washingtontimes.com/national/20041027-101153-4822r.htm This all looks to be a gigantic blunder by Kerry for trying to seize on this issue before the facts were established. If this story is backed up, Kerry comes out looking like Chicken Little, not a serious critic of administration policy. >Here's the deal on this stuff - I've seen stories on both ABC News >with Martha Radditz (sp?) who I like and trust and on The News Hour >with Jim Lehrer.
