Did Hell freeze over in the editorial room of the NY Slimes?

He acquired about $11 billion through illicit trading.

George Soros probably worked with him

Soros probably learned long ago that his trading would be more successful if he worked with dictators, socialists, media elites and Democrats. It is amazing that this article got out in the NY Times. CBS probably has called in a hit squad by now. HR Clinton is throwing ashtrays and icebergs at someone right now.

Does Brooks' column appear only on Saturdays? That is the day with the lowest readership.

I don't know why all parties continue to report that no WMDs were found in Iraq. The Duelfer Repost states that 53 Chemical WMDs have been found in Iraq since June of this year. The complete report is available on the following CIA website:

http://www2.cia.gov/Iraqs_WMD_Vol3.pdf

Check out Page 30.

Forty one SAKR-18 Sarin tipped rockets were found in one location. The SAKR-18 is an Egyption manufactured copy of the Soviet BM-21. Each Rocket has a range of 20-40 Km depending on the rocket motor and carries a 38 Kg war head. This particular version of the SAKR carries the capability of dispersing smoke for battlefield concealment. Anyone of these fired into a population center or smuggled into a public gathering could easily inflict 10X – 100X the casualties of 911. The real danger was in one of these getting into the hands of terrorists.

It is incredibly slow. Look for a horizontal bar at the bottom that indicates the % of load as it turns blue.

FReeper neverdem bumps #28, which mentions the Duelfur report, claiming numerous rockets and other biochem-capable/pre-loaded WMD were found in Iraq: Check out comment# 28.

The MSM is probably paid well to call a homeland defense rifle WMD, but a SAKR rocket a conventional armament. Cite of SAKRs found is said to be from Volume III of the report.

And they continue to rally around Rather.

Thanks for the ping.

God will have to help the lunatics of the MSM if we ever find out that they have been on the payroll of Islamofascists.

There could be foundation money involved, even indirectly.

Who funds the big-name journalism profs? Who builds the new buildings, and stocks their libraries, and rewards their internationalist, anti-western, Marxist academic agendas? These are encoded into the rules of PC, which are inculcated in the media's recruits before they arrive. Who contributes to the guilds and professional organizations to which they flock, once they have been hired? Who buys thier advertising? I see more and more "international" and "benign" public TV/radio coverage of mideast issues than ever before. Why the sudden interest?

Oh, and how could I miss:

Phillip L. Graham Fund

That'd be Katharine Graham's husband, who was linked to Felix Frankfurter and a Soviet spy ring Frankfurter was running during WWII.
