Could be.

I think this revelation is so darn odd coming at this time. If the guy was offered a bribe did he report it when it happened? To the UN I mean. If he did report it, how come no one's heard about it until now? Or maybe people did know about it.

It seems odd that this is just NOW going to the Voelker report. This incident should have hit the headlines WHEN IT HAPPENED! Yet I don't recall hearing anything about it.

And Saddam did this because he had NO weapons of mass destruction, of course. (sarcasm)

And, at this point, I'd like to re-post for a little bumpity, an old thread I began a long time ago...

RandallFlagg: WMDs = Cheese ^


I think something nasty will hit the fan shortly.
And the mess will splatter in a valley in Syria.

Ritter's offer was $2 mil + all the teen girls he wanted.

Don't forget the sweet correspondent stint at al-Jazeera.

AlGore, the putz who was put in charge of improving airline security while VP, took cash instead, then blamed 911 on Bush. It`s no coincidence that AlGore went completely insane after 911. It`s called extreme guilt.

The "bail out" to our country was the election of a POTUS with conviction for what's best for our country and not a conviction devoted to selfish endeavors.

On your tagline:

I agree and dislike them not keeping true to their RED heritage. I propose we make up bumper stickers in 08 that say, "This year WE get to be the blue states."

"My answer was, 'That is not the way we do business in Sweden.' "

At least not until the ROP takes over Sweden. Next year.

If I had your tag line, I would change one word: "are" to "have", as in "We have a battery ... ", because what happens to our poor faces when we find that target?

Who knows? (Certainly you don't) - The fact is all sorts of things could have been in those "supposed" caravans leaving Iraq (a war was coming and it does make sense for people to try and get all sorts of valuable items out of the Country beforehand). - The idea that they had to be WMD's is simply not an accurate or honest assessment -

The fact is we have had the best of the best searching Iraq via complex hex operations searching for any WMD's (or any evidence of an active WMD program) - The fact remains we have found none -

While one could theorize about how WMD's (themselves) could have been moved out of Country (to Syria for example) - What could not have been completely removed would be the "residuals" of any active WMD program.

Those residuals being from the human element, chemical element, computer element, prototype element, paperwork element, storage element, disposal element, etc, etc, etc - We have not found any residuals to an "active" WMD program. That is the bottom line.

But don't allow the MSM to fool you into thinking WMD's were the sole reason we went into Iraq - They certainly were not!! - There was a list of over 17 reasons presented by the WH for reasons Saddam needed to be removed. WMD's were only one of those reasons.

And the fact is now we know (to a large extent) about Saddam's current WMD program (there or not) and the World is safer because of it. The World is safer because Saddam is not in power. The World is safer because freedom and self-worth are spreading throught-out Iraq (and Afghanistan).

Lastly, GWB, Cheney and Rumsfeld are all serious men who do not play word games. All have said Saddam did not have the WMD's we expected he would have (They mean what they say).

Saddam Hussein's regime offered a $2 million (£1.4 million) bribe to the United Nations' chief weapons inspector to doctor his reports on the search for weapons of mass destruction

How can that be? We've been told by the mainstream media and the Eurotwits that Sadaam never had WMD! Why would he feel the need to bribe someone into not revealing them, if he never had them?

The MSM never fools me because I don't pay any attention to what they have to say. We know Saddamn had WMD's, he used them. granted what was moved was probably old and unstable (hopefully the ones moving them found this out). but I am not ready to become assured that the terrorists don't have their bloody hands on this stuff. I just think they may be afraid to use it while Bush is in power.

these people are evil and dangerous and that is the one thing that makes anything possible.
