They know the specifics of 400,000 tons but they don't know any details about 380 tons of missing explosives. They are blowing smoke out of their asses because they know no one will ask them to verify it. They will take their word at face value.

Now, they are saying the Russians were taking truckloads of weapons and explosives out of the country just before the invasion - perhaps to Syria or Iran??? Think about how illogical this claim really is. Their country is about to be invaded by America so they take all their weapons to defend themselves and hide them somewhere else? A logical person would expect them to bring weapons into their country - not take them out. Let's get rid of all our weapons so we have NOTHING to defend ourselves with... huh???

2. Condy Lies was on Tavis Smiley this AM
Blowing plumes of smoke about Iraq/Al Qaeda. I am incredulous over the blase' manner with which she conducts herself as war is raging. Her sweet 'I've got it so good' voice tells me she has zero compassion for our troops or our nation. Obviously, that lack of empathy is a litmus test for all * appointees.

Here's a link, but her evasive, well-rehearsed cheerleading will sicken you. And she repeats the 400,000# thing like a good cult member should....

BTW, Tavis is my lifesaver in the morning. Tennessee Radio SUCKS.

3. They've been spreading the "[] to Syria" lie for 18 months
Ever since we invaded and didn't find the WMD they swore they knew where it was, they've tried to peddle the crap that Saddam somehow spirited it out of the country to Syria. With our spy planes and satellites looking for exactly this.

Now they're saying that's where the 380 tons went?

Repeat after me: Bull. Shit. Now try them together: Bullshit. There. That wasn't too hard, was it?

4. Russia says bullshit.
MOSCOW - Russia angrily denied allegations Thursday that Russian forces had smuggled a cache of high explosives out of Iraq prior to the U.S. invasion in March 2003.

Defense Ministry spokesman Vyacheslav Sedov dismissed the allegations as "absurd" and "ridiculous."

"I can state officially that the Russian Defense Ministry and its structures couldn't have been involved in the disappearance of the explosives, because all Russian military experts left Iraq when the international sanctions were introduced during the 1991 Gulf War," he told The Associated Press

This is from the AP newswire...so far over 50 papers have picked it up.

7. Besides if you ponder the implications if the story were true
It would be even worse. The true fact they pulled the small contingent out in 1991 should more enough to show how ignorant these liars are.

5. Just like allowing North Korea and Iran to develop nuclear weapons, Bush
Edited on Thu Oct-28-04 11:07 AM by Zinfandel
wants them to use their nuclear weapons so he can have as excuse to justify using our overwhelming nuclear weapons against them.

The same goes for the missing explosives, Bush wanted those weapons in the hands of the Iraqi rebels to keep the war going full blast.

Keep the FEAR going!

Bush doesn't care about our troops, or for you or me for that matter.
