No WMDs, I tell you! None!!
sit down for this...Saddam Hussein periodically removed guards on the Syrian border and replaced them with his own intelligence agents who supervised the movement of banned materials between the two countries, U.S. investigators have discovered. The recent discovery by the Bush administration's Iraq Survey Group (ISG) is fueling speculation, but is not proof, that the Iraqi dictator moved prohibited weapons of mass destruction (WMD) into Syria before the March 2003 invasion by a U.S.-led coalition. The United States spotted the heavy truck traffic via satellite imagery before the war.
The point of this is not more WMD "gotchas." The point is where are these dangerous weapons, who has control of them and at whom are they pointed?!? Let's not take our eye off the ball, eh?
FYI, your link points back to your own site. I take it you meant to point here?

all fixed now…
Posted by Claire on 08/16/04 at 01:16 PMHmm. I’m only finding this story in the Washington Times, Newsmax, Front Page Magazine, the New York Post, and one Indian paper. Not sure what to make of that, since they’re all “conservative” sources.
It’ll be interesting to watch to see if this develops into something more.
