"Which makes me wonder how good the "seals" were on those bunkers."
Looks like my previous answer nailed it. Look at this:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1259604/posts
"The documents show IAEA inspectors looked at nine bunkers containing more than 194 tons of HMX at the facility. Although these bunkers were still under IAEA seal, the inspectors said the seals may be potentially ineffective because they had ventilation slats on the sides. These slats could be easily removed to remove the materials inside the bunkers without breaking the seals, the inspectors noted."
A thousand apologies--The story is up==so the amount was much smaller and according to the Washington Times and Financial Times the Russians probably helped the Baathists move it before the war to Syria and Lebanon and possibly Iran. Wow!! Game, set match!!
I don't trust the IAEA at all. They should have been destroying the weapons according to Deulfer's request, not just putting stickers on them. I think they're lying and probably part of the bribed coalition within Iraq.
And the media fell for it again. SUCKERS.

Rush read that yesterday too about the IAEA. Thought that was most interesting!
And it will be interesting to see how my two local rags handle this. The day after the NYT story appeared it was on their front pages. As soon as it became apparent that the MSM had hosed itself again, the AP's (my local papers don't do any of their own national stories) attempts at spin have been appearing farther back in the papers. What a joke. This nation is divided into 2 Americas all right. Those who are dim enough to trust the MSM for their news, and those who AIN'T.
We live in a small town and our two local papers do exactly what yours do. Then you never see the corrections.
I write a lot of letters to the editor and they accept almost all of them because so few people write in and they need letters. I try to correct the incorrect spin from the NYT, etc., using facts freepers have dug up.
One of ours just got an e-mail from me about allowing themselves to be hosed by the DNC. Again. They haven't replied. They never do. But then this is the same paper that, I kid you not, had one of its employees tell me that the editors think their readers are idiots.
That's a new marketing technique :-)
The liberals do think most readers are idiots; it's why they get away with the sloppy reporting they do.
Well, they're still hurting for subscibers so I guess the good news is that aren't as many idiots around here as they thought :)
- thanks for the heads-up -- figures kerry would step in in it big time before the election, now are the sheeple paying attention?
So the stuff disappeared right under the nose of the UN??
Wonder how much Saddam paid Blix?
Has there been any update on this story since last night???
