Missing Weapons - The UN\'s attempt to influence US election

Dude, the IAEA is involved with materials that have potential nuclear use. HMX is High Melting Point Explosive. We aren\'t talking about bottle rockets here.

The Iraqi government contacted the IAEA almost two weeks ago about the missing explosives. The Administration tried to spin the story like they were probably gone before we got there. It has now been proven that they were indeed still there after we invaded and were filmed and inspected by US troops. The rest of you people on the right would like to spin it as being meaningless but this is far from a non-story.

Are you a weapons expert?  Funny how no one has said that those containers are definitely the missing munitions.  It says they appear to be, but they aren\'t sure.  No one knows with any certainty of whether they were there or not.  That video isn\'t definitive proof - can you identify what is in those boxes?  The experts can\'t with any certainty.  Stop trying to claim they were definitely there because no one knows - not even the Iraqi\'s.  This is so ironic - you act like this video is breaking news when I posted it early this morning - I guess you and liberal media do have something in common. :rolleyes:  It is evident you didn\'t read the post above yours or my last post regarding the Pentagon statement saying the destroyed 250 tons from that very site.  Which, if that is the case - the story about it missing is false.

It is a non story for another reason.  If insurgents had it wouldn\'t they have used it by now?  In a year of hostilities against coalition forces?  Ya think?  Use a little common logic here BS.  This stuff isn\'t easily transported and certainly couldn\'t have been put in Abdalla the terrorist\'s pocket.  Certainly not a story worthy of all the attention it is getting.    

The head of the IAEA has had fundamental disagreements with the Bush Administration and it is a common fact that the UN as a whole only wants US money and troops when peacekeeping duties are necessary.

This leads to my last question... why did the IAEA let him keep the explosives?  I thought Saddam didn\'t have any banned munitions?

I\'m no expert but I\'m willing to bet that whatever was in those canisters was explosive.


Hey, but what do I know.

A lot of munitions explode.  Was it HMX?  You obviously don\'t know.
