So al Qaeda WAS in Iraq? Is this the story from the explosives?
Edited on Mon Oct-25-04 09:36 AM by underpants
See the NYT article here:

http://www.nytimes.com/2004/10/25/international/middleeast/25bomb.html?hp&ex=1098763200&en=fd35fdf4b6d46d61&ei=5094&partner=homepage



A 1996 photograph of a bunker where high-density explosives were stored at Al Qaqaa, an Iraqi military facility south of Baghdad.

Folks if 3/4 the blindfolded W crowd hasn't figured out that they were lied to before I expect this to be received as confirmation of what they already believe or refuse to admit.

2. No, al Qaeda wasn't in Iraq
The name of the munitions dump is simply a coincedence.

The Bush gang made sure to protect the oil fields, and the oil ministry after the invasion, but the rest of the country was allowed to go to hell and fend for themselves. Now US soldiers and others are going to pay for that mistake, as these looted explosives continue to turn up as roadside bombs.

Couple this with the missing radioactive materials, and gee, we have the makings for a dirty bomb.

And yet Bushco's supporters continue to BAA BAA away, not knowing, not caring what disasters their leader creates.

4. Ya think?
Do you wonder if they think we won't notice that the ammo dump is al Qaqaa and the terrorist group is al Qaeda?

They really do think we are dumb.
