Sawyer is the worst...he has been on the anti-war camp for weeks..would be nice if some islamists spray him with a bot of mustard gas then he will know why we are fighting for this war....

msnbc just said nobody knows what the plant was used for, but the disguise was Saddam's MO in hiding WMD facilities in the past. I guess the main guestion is how recently the place was used, and what is still in there.

Why is it, that the US seems to be the only country that follows the Geneva Convention? (Well, perhaps the British & Aussies do too.)

Maybe it is me... I remember watching a Christmas clamation show (Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer or Santa Claus is Coming to Town?) many years ago... there was an antagonist named Meister Burger - Burger Meister... his voice-over sounded just like Blix.

Does anyone remember this?

For an example of media bias watch Forrest Sawyer on MSNBC try to disparage this discovery.

They moved on so I can't. Can you tell us what he said? Also, I surfed past CNN about 10 min. or so and while they were speaking of something else, they did run a blurb on-screen for a short time about this subject. They had the word "may" be a chemical weapons plant.

I don't see that Fox is the only channel with the story. I do see that the plant is "suspected" "possibly" or "may be" a chemical weapons plant.

Doesn't matter, the plant is still there, it's a simple process to mix up a batch of what kills ya. He is in "material breach" and hopefully in hell as well.

I don't think a plant with no raw materials qualifies, but I could be wrong. Whether Saddam is dead or not, the apparently killing of so many of the top perps is a magnificent thing. But then I believe in capital punishment, and retribution. I guess I still have certain "uncivilized" instincts. Be that as it may, I plan to indulge them until my final exit. If I join Saddam someday, perhaps I will get a chance to depose him.

WOW! That's awesome!

Larry King briefly referred to it as the "supposed" chemical weapons plant. The skepticism was clear. Nothing would displease these liberal media pundits/entertainers than for the US to capably win this war and for the effort to be justified. An improving economy might send them over the edge...

Let's recap:

1. It's a "huge" facilty (not a few vials)

2. Camoflaged so it couldn't be seen from the air.

3. Barbed wire.

4. 100 acres.

5. Guarded by Iraqi army.

This can only mean one thing: They found Uday's cocaine refining plant!!!

hopefully this will shut up the protesters and skeptics :-/

[EllaMinnow]

It's on AP now - using the Pentagon as the source.

[Torie]

LOL.

Good point. It is like professional wrestling. We are the good guys who play by the rules while while the evil bad guys cheat and break every rule.

Look at our histrorical opponents: Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan, N.Korea & China, N.Vietnam, and Iraq. Every one of them abused, tortured, and killed our people. Rules are only for the good guys.

Of course.

I don't see that the plant has been verified yet, though, in all fairness, as a chemical weapons plant. It certainly may turn out to be so.

[The PeteMan]

Nothing will shut up the skeptics and non-believers. The only thing that will shut them up would be a terrorist bomb going off on their bus, in their building, etc..

When/if that happens they will blame Bush for not stopping it.

He can't win with those idiots.

Does anyone remember this?

I think that would be Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer with Burl Ives?

From 1441:

Deploring the fact that Iraq has not provided an accurate, full, final, and complete disclosure, as required by resolution 687 (1991), of all aspects of its programmes to develop weapons of mass destruction and ballistic missiles with a range greater than one hundred and fifty kilometres, and of all holdings of such weapons, their components and production facilities and locations, as well as all other nuclear programmes, including any which it claims are for purposes not related to nuclear-weapons-usable material,

And don't worry, if I'm right and your wrong, Saddam and you will not be bunking together.:-}

[The PeteMan]

Russians giving advanced weapons to Iraq and also fixing radar and GPS jammers .. Russians need to be dealt with as well.
