Well, I guess France has to join our side, then. Watch the weasels backpedal out of this one. Watch the "peace" protests dwither away.

That assumes that they have some shred left of integrity and honesty.

They're really protesting that Dubya is in office. Besides- I'm sure that they think it's great fun.

Hannity played a clip on his radio show of an Iraqi who was arguing for the liberation of Iraq. An archtypical 'peace protester' called in. The Iraqi blew her arguments out of the water- by any measure. She continued on with her robotic speil, as if she was lecturing a class full of high-school students. There was no dialog, whatsoever. It was as if he wasn't even there at all. The Iraqi started calling her 'little girl'.

"Has MSNBC said any more about this? I've been trolling the news nets and haven't heard a peep about this on the boob tube. I would think that this would be very big news."

I haven't seen it either...it should be an extraordinary story....so....

either the story jumped ahead of itself or it was quashed by the big boys ...

I've had Fox on in the background, so never personally heard the story.

Hi Nita. Hi Jeff. Does this story have a second source? If the government knows about this, then it is possible the theater commanders may be given nuclear authority.

We could use some confirmation.

That is not a Scud. IMO it appears to be a SA-2 surface to air, the "Flying Telephone Pole" of Viet Nam. Not a proscribed weapon.

That is Victoria Clark (Tory)..she is Rumsfeld's "right hand".

Torie used to do a cable show with Mary Matalin. First Mary was paired with Jane somebody (I can just picture Jane, but her last name escapes me). Then I believe it was between Jane and being paired with DeeDee Meyers, that Mary did her show with Torie.

Just a little background.

Question: How well do biological weapons such as anthrax survive in a war environment?

Is anyone really sure it is true ?

Please read carefully.

What this thread is about is what Dr. Bob Arnot said on the air on MSNBC. His report was seen and heard by several here who informed us of his on-air report.

Of course nobody knows what the substance was, yet.

What you can be sure is true, is that Arnot made the report as described. Testing is being done and obviously no results known yet.
