Pictures of troops guarding sites on April 2nd and April 9th
(note: I already posted this. I am re-posting because I read Skinners post on thread descriptions. I think this info is important, so I am re-posting with a better description)

Here is what I found. First off I want to show the NBC note again:

NBCNEWS reported: The 380 tons of powerful conventional explosives were already missing back in April 10, 2003 -- when U.S. troops arrived at the installation south of Baghdad!

An NBCNEWS crew embedded with troops moved in to secure the Al-Qaqaa weapons facility on April 10, 2003, one day after the liberation of Iraq.

This is what the troops were doing on April 2nd 2003:

This is what the troops were doing on April 9th 2003:

America is being accepted as a liberator. The scene on CNN just now, the
smile on looters' faces and that dabka dance in the plaza can not be
mistaken for anything else. This is certainly a plus sign for an extended
American stay.

I still have to ask however where is Saddam and where are all of his hundred
thousand Guards? I graciously assumed the fellow had an IQ of 200+ at the
start of the war. I wonder if I have to revise that estimate.
