Yes, I heard it.

Monsoor said to Brit Hume, and I paraphrase: "As you know, I cannot say to much, but from the information my sources are giving, Saddam has a lab and storage facility(?) for his WMD's and I expect by the State of the Union Address next year, that these will be found".

We can only hope!!

"Bill Press just on Scrobrough said David Kays report is coming out tomorrow to the CIA that there are no WMD. Guess we will have to wait and see."

===

The media said that about Kay's prelim report too, even though the report did contain info about WMD found. The media are big liars, or haven't you figured it out yet. They ignore evidence and keep perpetrating the big lie. BTW -- the memo, which proves the conneciton between Atta and Saddam was reported in the UK Telegraph, picked up by other foreign news agencies, but not a single US large media reported it. (WND & Newsmax picked them up -- and of course it was posted here)

Iraq Maintained Chem-Bio Warfare Research Right Up Until U.S. Invasion

November 24, 2003

"The Iraq Survey Group (ISG) recently discovered a clandestine Iraqi chemical and biological weapons research program that operated right up until the beginning of Operation Iraqi Freedom in April 2003. Briefing Congress about the discovery, ISG leader Dr. David Kay, a former UN weapons inspector, also discussed the calculated destruction of hundreds of computers and thousands of linear feet of paper documention related to Saddam's WMD programs that contiunued even after the Iraqi military had capitulated as well as Saddam's continued pursuit of ballistic and cruise missiles.

According to Kay, the ISG has discovered dozens of WMD-related program activities and significant amounts of equipment that Iraq concealed from weapons inspectors prior to Operation Iraqi Freedom. Admissions from scientists and military officials led the ISG to a prison laboratory complex and commercial factory that were part of a surreptitious network of laboratories and safe houses suitable for chemical and biological warfare (CBW) research. Within these labs, ISG investigators were able to retrieve reference strains of biological organisms used to produce CBW weapons. Biological strains were also recovered from Iraqi scientists who had the hidden the strains as well as documents and equipment "useful in resuming uranium enrichment by centrifuge and electromagnetic isotope separation in their homes."

Debriefings from Iraqi scientists revealed Iraqi research and development programs focused on the study of nonpathogenic organisms serving as surrogates for prohibited pathogenic agents. Pathogens under experiment included Bacillus Thurengiensis (Bt) with Bacillus Anthracis (anthrax) as well as different medicinal plants breeds known to produce ricin. Scientists told ISG personnel that production of Bt could be switched to produce anthrax in one week if the seed stock were available. "

For God's Sake!! Don't fall for whatever the media decides to show. You have no idea what they are showing us. They could be showing stock footage. They could be showing footage from something totally unrelated and presenting it as WMD searches.

C'mon, don't believe everything you see on ABCCBSNBCMCNBCMTV et al.

Ijaz said a few weeks ago that we would capture Saddam in a few weeks. Today's news gives him a ton of credibility.

You have answered your own question. Saddam did have thousands of biochem suits. They were in storage and had been in storage for over eight years. They were not deployed with his troops. If you had WMD and intended to use them then you would deploy the biochem suits wouldn't you?

You have failed to address the observations and merely tried to fob it off as bad reporting. I watched the event with my own eyes. The date was august 21, 2003. The simple fact is one of the team described to the reporter what they were looking for.

Now if you care to address the the observations fine. But at least attempt to be a full formed adult.

If you intend to use them in the immediate future, then yes you would hand out the suits. Otherwise, finding the suits in storage could mean that the weapons themselves are still in storage and their deployment was not imminent.

It would help keep you from making foolish statements, if you would READ the article, for which people provide you with link.

You are making assertions unsupported by facts.

I think you are hopeless, but maybe people who are actually taking your factually incorrect assertions seriously will learn something.

From the article I quoted in my post 56:

UK: Chemical suits found in Iraq

"There were numerous chemical weapons, protection suits and respirators left behind and this kit was effective, well-cared for and in good working order," Boyce said.

Boyce said that coalition forces would "have to ask themselves why Iraqi commanders felt that infantry in this part of Iraq should be issued with weapons of mass destruction equipment and protection."

He sells his theories with that low, assertive voice and his secret network of Arab insiders. He is a Dim and was a friend and guest of the Clintons.

I'm watching him.

Excellent, sorry I missed that.

The suits always seemed like evidence, to me. Our soldiers aren't routinely deployed with such protective gear, unless we believe they will encounter WMD.

It's simple, really.

But Ijaz got thouroughly disgusted with Clinton, when he saw that Clinton refused to accept Bin Laden, when Sudan offered OBL on a silver platter.

Ijaz was the one who made that public.

He also said either that he voted for President Bush the last time, or that he will certainly vote for him in the next election. I actually think he said he voted for him the last time.

No, not Monsoor. He has been right on. I trust what he says. We'll have to wait and see.

I still think he is an opportunist, and it is prudent to observe an opportunist closely. No matter what.

The cancer part is pure fantasy. The stuff probably would not cause cancer, and even if it did, the cancer would not show up for at least ten years. Makes me think the rest of the story is pure fantasy as well, like most of the other WMD stories out there.

Face it, we are not going to find WMD, because they no longer exist. Saddam would have destroyed them just before the inspectors reentered. At the UN Colin Powell showed pictures of decontamination trucks that may have been used to perform the destruction.

Finding actual chemicals does not matter. What matters is the production facilities. David Kay will find the seeds for production of biological weapons, and the ability to convert dual-use technology over to chemical weapons production on short order.

Imagine that you made moonshine. You have a still deep in the woods, far from your home. You learn that law enforcement is going to raid your home. So you destroy the moonshine in your basement - they find nothing in your home. Next day, you're back in business, no problem. It's not the jars in your basement that keeps you going, it's the still out back.

Said there was a family all suffering from cancer from transporting enriched uranium to Iran.

Doubtful.
