>> And the truth will finally come out

The truth was always out there. Just too many dumb shits that are happy to follow the Leftwing media lies for the sake of convenience.

Actually the vast majority of Syria’s chemical stockpile came from the old Soviet Union in the late 60’s early 70’s. This is not to say that Saddam might not have shipped what few he had off to Syria but the Syrians have had gas bombs / rockets /artillery shells for better than 25 years.

Just to be clear, I disagreed with the part about being ‘buried’ in the sand. Although an underground bunker might be considered ‘buried in the sand’.

There was a convoy we shot at, and stopped. In one of the vehicles was a ‘diplomat’. Russian diplomat. After a few phone calls and radio messages, the Russian convoy was allowed to continue, and US forces were told to watch but not interfere.

You supplied some good information, but both our stories are just pieces of the puzzle. I think the real point to the story should be that someone is making sure these don’t end up in terrorist hands. Or that they didn’t.
