Are they reporting this as an opinion or conjecture, or are they citing any sources?

Source = King of Jordan

More information, still nothing anywhere else to indicate the presence of VX.

Missing weapons and WMD stuff trivia time...

APRIL 11, 2004 : (IAEA'S EL BARADEI REPORTS THAT LARGE AMOUNTS OF NUCLEAR-RELATED EQUIPMENT & SMALL NUMBER OF MISSILE ENGINES HAD BEEN SMUGGLED OUT OF IRAQ FOR RECYCLING IN EUROPEAN SCRAPYARDS) Mohammed El Baradei, director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), reported April 11 that large amounts of nuclear-related equipment, some of it contaminated, and a small number of missile engines have been smuggled out of Iraq for recycling in European scrapyards. UN satellite photos have detected "the extensive removal of equipment and, in some instances, removal of entire buildings" from sites subject to UN monitoring, El Baradei said in a letter to Security Council members, a copy of which was obtained by the Washington Post.
El Baradei said it wasn't clear whether this was merely looting, or part of a systematic effort to destroy evidence. "In any event, these activities may have a significant impact on (IAEA's) continuity of knowledge of Iraq's remaining nuclear-related capabilities and raise concern with regards to the proliferation risk associated with dual use material and equipment disappearing to unknown destinations." - "And if the WMD are found ...

Lab Tests Could Link Saddam's Missing WMDs to Jordan Plot

Your #127: are these confirmed to be from Iraq, or is this speculation?

According to NewsMax (see post #205), the lab tests haven't come back yet. I am sure the news media, including Fox News, is rather silent because they don't want to jump on this only to have it turn out to be another dud (meaning no WMD smoking gun).

If the "experts" in Jordan are right, it is a smoking gun.

Syria and the WMD Shell Game

How do we know it was to hit Jordan.
Wouldn't Israel be better for Al Queda to hit.
Seem they would have spared just a little to share with their Zionist enemies.

According to John Loftus tonight
one of the three trucks was going to try
to cross into Israel.

If it couldn't make it through the check point
they were planning to explode on the border.

Why are all the reports of WMD said to be false after testing? Is this to be kept secret to lure the terrorists?

pesticide. They needed lots and lots of pesticide.

John Loftus is very reliable. His reports are on John Bachelor's show, and again on TV on Sunday AM. I have no idea on earth why his conjectures are not front page for US papers. Consider, Israel has 300 nuclear weapons, Syria has tons of rockets with VX, Al Quaeda is barely prevented from attacking Israel with VX, setting everything into motion...and the headlines talk about Kerry's medals.

Ok now I was just wondering how much this story was still out there. I heard on TBN I believe by hal linsey maybe. that one story was printed and that the three trucks were bombed by jordan not ffar from one of their towns. and another story went out that people got very sick in one of Jordan’s towns and the reason wasn’t given or it wasnot repeated and was squashed. Personally I think war would have happened in Iraq and though Bush went in quick, what would America have done if they had not stormed the beach of normandy or france on that foggy day?
