• President Bush, Jan. 28, 2003: Our intelligence officials estimate that
Saddam Hussein had the materials to produce as much as 500 tons of sarin,
mustard and VX nerve agent.


tap tap tap on the calculator....a 40 foot trailer carries around 48,000
lbs....so this would be 20 tractor-trailers, unless they used 53 ft
trailers, but those are usually just for lightweight stuff like paper
products.

All our surveillance technology couldn't spot tractor trailers headed toward
Syria? I've read that our best satellites can resolve enough detail to
identify a pack of cigarettes in someone's hand.

Hmmm....maybe nobody was told to look for trucks leaving the country. I
wonder why that would be?

Or.....maybe people *did* notice trucks, and were told to stop noticing.

How many have we lost?

How much has it cost?

Is there nothing better we could have done with those lives and money?

Those folks should be damned certain of what they're risking.

Bush wasn't other than rhetorically.

It's either certainty or not, jps. By the time it's certain, it's too
late.

Oops. You didn't edit properly. Seems that you left a Democrat in there.
