EXPLOSIVE NEWS VIDEO
http://kstp.dayport.com/viewer/viewerpage.php?Art_ID=159660

Click on the link and unfortunately you have to go through a commercial - but after that - it is a damning report regarding an embedded reporter with the 101st...and they have video of going into the bunkers that look just like the Al qaquaa facility - and we see boxes and boxes and bags and bags of explosives - all clearly marked explosives.....Watch this - it will be very very very difficult for Bush to squirm out of this one.......

...(that's your cue, Mr. Lovitts)...

LIE!

2. Awesome video
It shows the soldiers CUTTING THE CHAINS AND LOCKS OFF THE DOORS. Then boxes and boxes of explosives.

3. Thanks! Very damning to the Bushies...
I watched ABC last night. The estimated total of over 300 tons of this stuff was downsized by some pinhead to around 3 tons. I'm thinking not! Also, no dates were pinned down, but the timeframe on this link fits. Explosives were there and disappeared between March and May '03. I'm sure there must be other news agencies as well that have proof such as this to dispute whatever case Shrubbie&Co might make. Good stuff!

5. Is this the Minneapolis TV News report?
The link to pics and print story (They saw the explosives on April 18, 2003) is on my blog (under the burning bush).

6. Nah.
This doesn't prove anything. Until they have a CIA verified video of Scrub helping Osama bin Laden load the explosives into a pickup truck with an 'I love al Qaeda' bumper sticker on it, they won't be able to make him accept responsibility. This guy makes Teflon look sticky.

8. And now they are trying to say the russians took them????
Just how stupid do they think we are?????? You know - it is no wonder Jon Stewart and the Daily Show have done so well - Bushco provides them with such rich juicy material - just like this......

But in reality - it goes to show how desperate they are and they know that they cannot recover in time for election day.....it is over for Bush. The only thing left to consider is how many criminal charges should be laid at his feet.....

9. Well
They're already in the "that's a distortion of the facts" phase of the spin, which comes after the "we didn't do that" bit. They'll just have to finish with the always-boffo "we meant to do that" cleanup and our magnificent Fourth Estate can breathe easier and get back to important celebrity news coverage.

13. Why are the boxes in English?
I'll just cut and paste my post from another thread:

Wouldn't you would figure lettering on a box of Iraqi explosives in an Iraqi military base would be in Arabic, in Arabic lettering? It's in English with English lettering.

I'm trying to play Devil's advocate. Maybe I'm just being paranoid, but something's fishy. Berware of a plant of "evidence" in the news. Remember the 60-Minutes/AWOL story. Could the Bushies "leak" an easily debunked photo to a friendly news channel so they can debunk it and bitch about the "liberal media" picking on them?

PS-I'm not doubting the original story. Their were explosives at Al Qaqaa that the Bushies let the insurgents get. I'm just wary of this particular report and these particular pictures.

14. Well....who might have sold those explosives to Iraq?
I haven't had time to chase this story, but if the English lettering is true, the administration may have double trouble.

22. Thanks for clearing that up.
It would be interesting to trace their origins, however, though probably impossible now.

17. Iraqis, and other Arabs, often use English for technical markings
eg this plate on one of the hydrogen generator trailers, which was made in Iraq:

16. booshCo* Option 1: They never had them.
Result: So what are we doing there in the first place, dipshit? :thumbsdown:

booshCo* Option 2: They were there, but we lost track of them.

Result: So why did we send an insufficient number of troops there to secure the area? :thumbsdown:

Final Result: :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown: That's two strikes against you, bunnypants. You don't get a third...

Netscape 6.x, 7.x, and Mozilla users will not be able to watch video on KSTP.com at this time. Click here for more information."

28. THIS NEEDS TO BE MIRRORED TO LBN !!!
We need to have a groundswell on this video. Even if it's not exactly the same bunker as the one in question, it still proves that the military was going on scavenger hunts for media gains and then leaving these facilities unguarded.

Kick, motherf'n...Kick

I figured they would have their symbol. I seem to remember the ones that were in North Korea looked differently, pretty distinct.

Not necessarily I would think - because during the time just leading up to Bush's invasion, the Iraqis had plenty of time to break off those IAEA seals to get SOME of the materials they felt they needed to defend themselves. And then re-secure them with chains and padlocks.
