UN: Saddam Shipped WMD's Out of Iraq Before, During, and After WarThe United Nations has determined that Saddam Hussein shipped weapons of mass destruction components as well as medium-range ballistic missiles before, during and after the U.S.-led war against Iraq in 2003. The UN Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission briefed the Security Council on new findings that could help trace the whereabouts of Saddam's missile and WMD program. The briefing contained satellite photographs that demonstrated the speed with which Saddam dismantled his missile and WMD sites before and during the war. Council members were shown photographs of a ballistic missile site outside Baghdad in May 2003, and then saw a satellite image of the same location in February 2004, in which facilities had disappeared. ... The Baghdad missile site contained a range of WMD and dual-use components, UN officials said. They included missile components, reactor vessel and fermenters – the latter required for the production of chemical and biological warheads. "It raises the question of what happened to the dual-use equipment, where is it now and what is it being used for," Ewen Buchanan, Perricos's spokesman, said. "You can make all kinds of pharmaceutical and medicinal products with a fermenter. You can also use it to breed anthrax." ... In April, International Atomic Energy Agency director-general Mohammed El Baradei said material from Iraqi nuclear facilities were being smuggled out of the country. He said that? Funny, I don't remember reading about that. I honestly don't. You'd almost think there was, I don't know, what shall we call it?, some sort of a "liberal media bias" embargoing news that cuts in favor of the War in Iraq. I know that sounds crazy, but what else can explain it? The whole article is worth reading, but copyright rules prevent me from "excerpting" it all. Update: AP's take. El Baradei's mention of nuke-components is, strangely enough, omitted. posted by Ace at 04:31 PM

To be fair, I do recall hearing a little bit about the smuggling into Europe. But the story was squelched. Posted by: Smack on June 11, 2004 04:55 PM
What does this have to do with Abu Ghraib? Posted by: Moonbat_One on June 11, 2004 04:55 PM
Yeah Abu Grabass, let's not forget how terrible, and evil it was that some skank shoved a glo-stick up some poor, defenseless terrorists poop-chute. Honestly, producing biological weapons that could kill millions and millions of innocent civilians is nothing compared to getting a glo-stick up your can, and wearing panties on your head. Have we no shame?! Posted by: Marty on June 11, 2004 05:01 PM
Ace, You've been on a posting tear the past few days. Im going to get fired if I dont get some work done, dammit! Posted by: Golden Boy on June 11, 2004 05:33 PM
obviously this story has nothing to do with Abu Ghraib...but the creative editing of the global warming angle, not to mention the ever growing number of homeless people without healthcare, is reprehensible. Posted by: sonofnixon on June 11, 2004 06:09 PM

You know what this post reminds me of? Sean Penn's acceptance speech for an Oscar or something for whatever movie that was, which began with, "The one thing all actors know, other than that there were no WMDs..." I got a kick out of it at the time because I imagined a room full of aspiring actors sitting down to take the mandatory test to join the Screen Actor's Guild. On that test they are given top secret dossiers from various international intelligence agencies and instructed to analyze them and assess security threats from various rogue states. Because obviously, if every actor knows the precise extent of Saddam Hussein's military capabilities, they must have access to information the general public doesn't have, right? Because the best that the general public could say, on that same day, would have been, "We have not yet discovered WMDs," and then only by re-defining the meaning of the phrase for which WMD is an acronym. The general public could not have known that there were no WMDs, because they were not actors, and therefore did not have access to the same sources that CIA and actors everywhere have and routinely review. The other thing I thought while watching Sean Penn at the Oscars was "what a douchebag." Posted by: Aaron on June 11, 2004 06:51 PM
I guess Tawny Kitten really likes Jaguars. And they like her. (Well, they used to like her before she started acting and looking like she wanted the lead role in the sequel to "Monster.") The one thing all actors know, other than that there were no WMDs..." What an idiot. The one thing all actors know is the number of lines they have in their current script. I'm going to start my next "heavy" speech with, "The one thing all bloggers know--other than how blogging attracts hot nympho groupies just like starring in a rock band does--is..." Posted by: Nicholas Kronos on June 11, 2004 07:02 PM
Hmmm. A lot of stories like this floating around, but they don't really prove the existence of the kinds of WMDs that the media will notice. While *we* know that banned weapons are banned weapons, stuff like SA-2's (obsolete SAMs) and engine parts aren't going to light anyone's panties on fire. Of course, I take the unique view (well, Jim Woolsey might share it) that the real intelligence failure isn't that we didn't discover the WMDs were gone and still went to war, it was that we lost track of the ones that were certainly there before the war. If we can lose sight of an entire program, we can't be certain of what's going on in Iran or North Korea or the next nation to go the WMD route. Intelligence failures work both ways-- if the left wants to think we were wrong in thinking Iraq had WMD, then they can't possibly be sure that same intelligence complex is right in thinking that countries like Iran *don't* have WMD. CIA syas North Korea has 3 bombs? 5 bombs? Well, it could just as well be 30 bombs, with one sitting in an intermodal container in Seattle harbor as "insurance," for all we know. THAT'S what scares me at night. The Iraqi WMD had to go somewhere, but so many people think that since they aren't there now, thus they never existed in the first place.

Seems like there should be some way to work in weiners or butt sex, here. If you could, maybe the "news" would notice. Because these are the sorts of weapons the UN said Hussein didn't even have. The sarin shell last month was the breaching of the dam on this info. Posted by: blaster on June 11, 2004 10:40 PM

She also realizes that social media and the legacy media have "misled" her. Republicans aren't in a bubble. We all know what the left is thinking and saying because corrupt social media companies constantly push the Marxist propaganda media on us. It's the left that is sheltered and protected in curated spaces from ever hearing a dissenting point of view. Many of us might like to be in a bubble, but the Marxist propaganda media's domination, along with the Google/Microsoft determination that everyone's feeds must be stuffed full of the Marxist propaganda media ops, means we can't bubble up even if we'd want to.
