Russia Tied to Iraq's Missing Arms- what we have on Al QaQaa to date

Posted on 10/28/2004 4:01:05 AM PDT by backhoe
Let me get this straight. The NYT issues a bogus story on missing explosives. Kerry then makes it a key part of his campaign. Then the NYT reports on the new theme of Kerry's campaign. Then Kerry makes an ad touting the NYT story.
Here's a fast grab of all the links & relevant commentary I have so far:
Did Russia Help Iraq Dispose of Weapons?
Read the commentary here:
624 comments As I posted on an earlier thread, the very notion that this isn't just the musings of unnamed officials, but comes from named individuals who are rather high in the Adminstration shows how much that the Admin think this stuff is legit. And they were waiting for the right time to drop this one on the Kerry campaign, which should have known better.
MSNBC BREAKING NEWS: RUSSIANS MOVED EXPLOSIVES (Saw it on MSNBC Scarborough Country) This may not destroy Kerry, but it sure can't help. This deal could change the demographics of the entire world. The leftist will never recover from this if Russia actually removed Iraq's WMD's before we invaded. Putin had a choice... Leave them their and explain why Russian weapons killed thousands of our troops, or go in and remove them and explain later why he did it to save lives.
I found one link to go with these which is to day by day battles in Iraq, so things can be put into context as to what was happening in all that area during that time. It's like people forget that there was a WAR going on, attacks against our military taking place and our guys fighting on their way to Bagdad. How exactly did these tons of weapons get 'taken' with all that happening..air strikes etc.?
War Time Line
The media plays 'trick or treat' The media are too busy
repackaging old Iraq news in an October offensive against President George W. Bush's reelection to investigate truly startling
evidence unearthed this week that the Communist Party may have been directing John Kerry's anti-war activities in the early 1970s
I've read the Kerry ad. It may be built on deceptions and half truths but it's an effective ad and it will require not rebutting but refutation.
President Bush needs to make a statement; have a press conference - something straight from the President himself and NOW. . .stop the lies. . .stop the misinformation. . .stop the Kerry camp in it's tracks. . .NOW; by stepping up and out. . .taking advantage of his position as President so speak directly to the people. He should have a 'fireside' everynight. . .or Press conference every day. . .
NBC Video vs. Kerry Campaign Video... ~4:41pm~ EST
SEEMS INCREDIBLE THAT NEARLY 24 HOURS AFTER NYTIMES STORY IS BLOWN AWAY - JOHN KERRY CONTINUES TO USE IT ON THE TRAIL: The Daily Recycler has done everyone in the blogosphere a tremendous service by editing together Kerry's specific statements and the actual truth from NBC News. WATCH THE VIDEO HERE (1:27), LISTEN HERE TO THE 3 HOUR EXPOSE we did on air today.
YET ANOTHER SERVICEMAN REFUTES THE TIMES ACCOUNT [10/26 05:23 PM] --
Question seems to be IS THIS THEIR BEST SHOT??
I'm confident it won't be their last.
NYTrogate--
As I said yesterday, Joe Lockhart on the Kerry-Edwards conference call yesterday said the missing explosives: "Central issue for the rest of the campaign."
This is their October Surprise and they have nothing else but vote fraud. They have to go with this story no matter if it is a lie or not. They have nothing else. Desperation has set in for the Dems and it is blowing up in their face.
We in the "New Media" need to keep telling everyone we know that this story is a "LIE" and Kerry is a liar as well as MSM
Edwards rips Bush for lost Iraq explosives (Will Edwards apologize now?) I have been contacting the media sources that are continuing the missing explosives lie trying to pressure them to issue retractions and to get Kerry Campaign people to comment on the latest information about this story that they have been using as a political attack against President Bush. I urge you all to do the same.
Why don't they just call it the Oct 25th Surprise, since they have a new one everday.
This is not the real October surprise- it's too early for the critical hit; there's a whole week for the story to be shot at and sunk - The real attack comes at the end of week and is directed at Bush's character, a follow-up to the Kitty Kelly and Dan Rather types of attack.
THE DITTOCAM IS ON! Live Rush Thread Rush is ripping CBS, NYT, and Kerry a new one. (LOVING IT) I have a feeling that this is going to hurt CBS and Kerry in the long run. I am glad that NBC came forward with their
footage showing the explosives were moved before we took Baghdad. You would think that CBS and Dan Rather would have learned their lesson after Memo-gate-- In a lot of workplaces today (and for the next week) people are fixating on the election. It's topic #1 in conversations.
So even if the MSM doesn't get on it, those of us of the PJ platoons can burn peoples ears off at work about it.
"what's coming out now is just old useless info. Am I wrong?"
I believe you are correct, if they had anything, anything at all they would have used it by now. They are recycling old news- remember the national guard story they tried to resurrect and put some extra pepper on it by sending in FAKE documents. Again the bloggers came to the rescue and were the first to prove the documents as false. Everything they have tried to throw at this president has fallen flat on its face-
"Obviously this isn't a case of Bush failing to "guard" the explosives. By the time our troops got there they weren't there to guard."
Another CLASSIC case of guilt by accusation. The truth didn't matter, only the accusation. And once again, the MSM jackals run full tilt with the story, without adequate corroboration, as long as they had any chance of smearing President Bush. The decades long practice of MSM lies, smears, and propaganda against Republicans continues.
Dear God these people at CBS and in the MSM are desperate to bring down a sitting POTUS...at any cost. I suspect anything and everything reported as NEWS for the last half century from the MSM...
Kerry wants answers on missing explosives
"Are you keeping up with this on the thread about Hanoi Documents: Two recently discovered documents captured from the Vietnamese communists during the Vietnam War strongly support the contention that a close link existed between the Hanoi regime and the Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW) while John Kerry served as the group's leading national spokesman"
Here's the direct link to the WinterSoldier.com article that this WorldNetDaily article is summarizing:
What ironies! Bob Woodward and the press fought to bring to light the Watergate facts. Today, the MSM consciously avoids the facts and it is left to ordinary patriots to uncover the rot. Well done.
I've known all this (not about Kerry, specifically, but the war protestors) since my days in military intelligence. I never thought I'd see the day that a 'useful idiot' or worse, communist mole, would be nominated for the highest office in the land.

Be careful; the thread police were out last night looking for any hint of criticism of the president. Normally credible freepers have gone round the bend on anyone who thinks the administration did respond quickly enough.

Unless the old media reports that these explosives were NOT there when we got there the damage has been done. It's sick but true. They are evil. Putin must speak up for Bush!
Unfortunately too many people (voters) will be influenced by the disinformation that they have already received! It's sad but true.
The old media must step up and do the right thing now, tell the WHOLE story. What are the chances of that?
This country is a sick place if a sleazy human like Kerry can get elected!!!

Hi, Peach- it took me a minute to get this:
President Bush needs to make a statement; NOW or Press conference every day. . .
-that's a quote from within the linked article.
My own opinion is the timing could not be better- the Administration has played it perfectly. The Kerry camp won't have time to counter this effectively- if a counter exists, which I cannot envision.
If this doesn't effectively "nuke" the Kerry camp, the UN, and a few others, nothing will. I think "the music's over- turn out the lights."

The MSM has been constantly losing market shares and will continue to lose until they change their tune. Now is a good time for them to start. Sometimes I think the MSM wants Kerry to be elected so another 911 happens then they can sell more tabloid.

It occurred to me last night that IF this is true, and IF Russia was actually removing those weapons as part of a deal with us there are some MAJOR indictments of Kerry:
1 - He is on Senate Intel Committee and knew it.
2 - By extension he was deliberately lieing and misleading the electorate.
3 - His gamble was that Bush wouldn't declassify a national security issue. disgusting
4 - One of the talking points yesterday was that even if the weapons were gone, it shows how bad the pre-war planning was.... if this is true the pre-war planning was IMMACULATE with regard to WMDs.
5 - What he implicated was just short of treasonous. He attempted to smear the sitting President with known lies using classified info for cover, all to win an election. Can you say media junta?
I'm starting to think someone last night was right. Bush was pissed during the first debate because Kerry knew better.

Normally I save links like the one above in an email and when I have enough, send it to the usual suspects ( papers & columnists, and a few friends ) in 'netland, after copying the html to a post that needs updating- like the Vote Fraud Archives, or the Dark Underbelly.
Sometimes I will copy the html over to a notepad file on the HD and make a floppy copy if it's something I really want preserved.
Just FYI, FWIW?
"How do you compile all those links and text for various topics?"
I use the lazy method ( although I do occasionaly hand-code links... I'll outline that at the bottom ) of letting Outlook Express do the html. Let's see if I can explain-- been a while since I figured out how to do it...
Open OE & hit create mail... once you have a blank email form open, poke 'view' tab and be sure "source edit" is enabled-- when that is working the bottom of the email will have three tabs visible for edit, source, & preview.
( I *think* you also have to have the HTML enabled in OE by poking the "rich text" tab-- keep that in mind if it doesn't seem to work at first )
Keep the email open- you can close OE if you like.
Simply highlite, copy & paste the headline from FR to the email- it makes an active link. By punching the source tab in the email, the embedded html becomes visible and you can copy that as needed to replies, etc.
This works on FR, Free Dominion, and most other forum boards I belong to that use a bulletin-board forum style like UBB... here's one: http://www.thehighroad.org/
The email can also be sent to others as well. Control-S saves the file to disk, in your draft folder in OE.
Another thing you can do is copy the URL addy from your address box in the browser to the email- it makes a hotlink... I used to do that and then copy the FR title under it, with a pithy quote from the article-- but that is redundant. The titles on FR pages have embedded links, and OE "sees" that, when you don't. If it's something you can click on, it should be possible just to copy & paste to the email and have it work as a hotlink.
You can copy graphics that way too ( doesn't always work, but usually does )-- hilite, copy & paste to the email. The same applies to fonts, italics, etc.
I used to hand-code links-- the A Href stuff, and to make it easier I kept the strings of code for hotlinks, graphics, etc. stored in a notepad file and would copy & paste the addies and titles to the appropriate field- still do it, but it's slow.

Nice work backhoe:
Edwards told us, if we really want to know Yaaawn, just spend a couple minutes with the men who served with him in Vietnam. They have spent the last 120 days making sure the American People dont hear from those very men who overwhelmingly despise him. Just as he lied about the atrocities of our honorable Vietnam Vets 30 years ago, he accepts the word of the corrupt United Nations to denigrate todays Brave Soldiers. Simply because he lied about his heroics to hides the fact that he was a coward, he attacks those who actually fight in the face of death. This is a cowardice and psychosis that defies words.
Months ago, we found that he lied about his trip into Cambodia on Christmas eve that was seared, seared into his memory. We found beyond a shadow of doubt that he was never in Cambodia and violating International Law under Nixons orders like he said he was. These were lies that he manufactured to damage the Military and bring down a Presidency. He was lauded in the public and he convinced me at the time that he was speaking the truth. Why should anyone question a decorated officer who was actually there? He was lying.
This is a different world and we dont automatically believe the words of the Old York Times or DNCBS. Our antennas automatically go up to test their fables. The only person in this Country who automatically believed those words as Gospel was Yaaawn Cut & Ran Kerry. His first last and foremost reflex is to go attack the Military. He blames the troops of not guarding the missing explosives as if this is some war crime. Not only does he trash them in his speeches in the most disgraceful accusations, he makes a commercial attacking them. Only one explosive problem.
Just as he has attacked our troops with the, wrong war, wrong time, wrong place, and calling our allies who have paid the ultimate sacrifice the, coerced and bribed he denigrates our troops on the ground. Just as he called Allawi an American Puppet to make this war illegal, he shames our Troops as he did our Vietnam Vets. Now he calls this a growing scandal, yes it is and he is sitting right on top of the burning dynamite. If this attack machine werent running for President he would be run out of town, and tarred and feathered.
Now we find that the weapons not only werent there when we arrived, but the Russians most likely took them to Syria with the WMDs. WMDs, the lies of the CIA and George W Bush??? Yes, the Russians took these explosives with much of Saddamns most powerful weaponry to Syria and other countries and that is where the WMDs are.
So, not only could our troops do absolutely nothing about these explosives because they were already gone, but we have found the WMDs that Mike Mooreon and the rest of the Stone-age press has been razing the President for. We found no WMDs because Putin had taken them across the border to save his own hide and hurt our President. Paging Mr Putin!!
These facts need to come out, but the largest fact exposed is Yaawn does not have the character or stature to be President of The United States. To be in charge of the Military, the minimum requirement is to respect the Military and the sacrifices and protection they provide us. The absolute minimum that should be required is to realize that the 750+ Soldiers who died in action in Iraq, did it to provide him the Freedom to run for the highest office in the world. The least that he could do for them is to respect them for doing things he never could. His latest attack commercial disqualifies him for the office of Commander in Chief.

Guess I might as well pile on. Last night was exciting, seeing old articles come back to light.
Here is where the WHITEHOUSE, and POWELL, reveal the info to the public, on the WMD's and the Russians moving them, and SADDAM's link to terrorists, way back in 2003.
http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2003/02/20030205-1.html#39
Here is a Russian INSIDER explaining the pre-negotiated plan for removing WMD's from IRAQ in case it was invaded by the US. So as to keep the Russians from getting caught selling prohibited weapons to Saddam.
http://frontpagemag.com/Articles/ReadArticle.asp?ID=10111
OK, so the Russians hauled the CHEM/BIO/NUC components and weapons out of IRAQ. Where did they take them?
RITE CHEER!
http://www.2la.org/syria/wmd.html
Folks, we watched the Russian convoys doing this. Our soldiers saw them, SATTELITE photos were taken, all the way from AL Qa Qaa to Bekka Valley in Syria.
Our soldiers couldn't do anything because we were held up by the UN and the DEMOCRATS for SIX MONTHS awaiting to invade and free the IRAQI's.
When we got there, (AQQ), soldiers reported seeing long streams of large tire marks exiting the Al Qa Qaa facility.

4 - One of the talking points yesterday was that even if the weapons were gone, it shows how bad the pre-war planning was.... if this is true the pre-war planning was IMMACULATE with regard to WMDs.We watched them remove this stuff. Although we had no physical proof, we knew they were removing, CHEMICAL,BIOLOGICAL, and NUCLEAR weaponry and components, and production machinery.
We didn't stop them, we didn't want to stop them. It was to our advantage to allow them to remove this stuff, and keep it out of the hands of looters and terrorists.
Lives were saved by the RUSSIANS who were only trying to cover their asses because they sold the stuff to Saddam to begin with.
Same for Germany, France.
Kerry is the one who keeps putting LIVES of coalition forces SOLDIERS AT RISK again.
