Take a look at this picture of the 'Syrian nuclear site' and advise me.
Edited on Fri Apr-25-08 11:04 AM by sinkingfeeling








Does bombing a building usually remove the roadway or river in front of it? And why doesn't it look the same as the one Fox News published in 2003?

1. I can't help on advising, but will kick in hopes that someone can.

6. It's the same gang, with the same agenda
It's the same gang, with the same agenda, only this time their lies are on a bigger scale – and the stakes are much higher. What's amazing, to me, is that, even with this kind of record, these guys appear to be getting away with it. Once again, the major news media outlets are acting as conduits for war propaganda – and instead of displaying the least bit of skepticism, they're more gullible than ever.

7. The dark area in the upper left photo isn't a river
It's a shadow cast by a hillside. Other than that, it's a good point.

8. The building in the little photo isn't square, in the big photo it is
assuming it's the same site, that seems to indicate about 1/5 of the building is missing from the bottom photo.

The addition of that 20% of the building toward the top of all the photos could change the relationship of the building to the
area approaching it on that side...

Without a wider view it'd be hard for amateurs to say much about roads being rerouted etc.

9. My advice is not to listen to a damned word that BushCo tells you
They're trying the same shit they tried with Iraq.

10. the pictures are oriented 180 degrees apart
Edited on Fri Apr-25-08 11:27 AM by frogcycle
here it is with the rightmost one rotated (center) - notice that white shape on the bank of the river - or whatever it is - right where it bends

it looks like the "river" is mostly out of the frame, and if it was water, is drained - or filled in with rubble. But there is a pattern in the ground consistent with its location



as to comparison with the fox news one - I don't think its the same building

14. I remember the Colin Powel presentation with satellite pics
of chemichal Biological plants and Weapons of Mass Destruction

I notice now they use the term nuclear

because they used Weapons of Mass Destruction so Much and it was false it rings in our brains as a lie

I believe this is a Lie again

but that Syria denied this makes me think that they were up to no good too
