Not WMDs, fertilizer bombs. Ingredients available in large quantities
worldwide. The same variety that took 160 innocent men, women and
children's lives in Oklahoma City by one of our own.

They were not "fertilizer bombs" as used in Oklahoma City.
There was nerve gas in the mix.

That is yet to be determined. The only positive identification of the
chemicals I have seen stated that a "large portion" of the mix was
just sulfuric acid, which seems to indicate that the attackers simply
wanted to contaminate the area with toxic chemicals.


An est. 80,000 people would have died, the vast majority from chemical
exposure.

That claim is ridiculous at face value. By comparison, the Bhopal
tragedy involved 40 tons of pure cyanide, an honest-to-god chemical
weapon, and only killed 20,000 people.

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates - A purported message from the al-Qaida
operative Abu-Musab al-Zarqawi said Friday his group did not plan a chemical
weapons attack as the Jordanian authorities have alleged.

"The (allegation) that there was a chemical bomb to kill thousands of people
is a mere lie," the reported voice of al-Zarqawi says on a tape broadcast
via an Islamic site on the Internet.

"God knows, if we did possess (a chemical bomb), we wouldn't hesitate one
second to use it to hit Israeli cities such as Eilat and Tel Aviv," the
voice said.

How about we talk about the al Qaeda terrorist who was caught trying to
detonate a chemical bomb in Jordan recently?

ABC World News Now. April 27, 2004

In an interview broadcast by ABC's World News Now, the leader of the Al
Qaeda cell organizing the explosive and chemical attack on the Jordanian
security headquarters and the American Embassy in Jordan stated that he
received his training from Al-Zawahiri in Iraq, prior to the fall of
Afghanistan.

To quote a high-ranking government official quoted on 4/27/04:

"It appears, as they peel away the weapons of mass destruction issue - and
we may yet find them...Look, I want to make it clear. Who knows if a month
from now, three months from now, you find some weapons? You may."

So you agree with the high-ranking official's assessment that "we may yet
find them"?

At 5:00 today, I'm going fishing. There's a creek running through my office
park. There's some sort of insect hatch going on right now. Therefore, it
appears I may have a hatch to match on a different creek, the one I'll be
fishing on.

The official said "it appears.....we may yet find them".

The content of my fishing prediction is pure fluff. The content of the
official's statement is pure fluff. You know that.

I would agree that finding WMD is rapidly becoming irrelevant. If this
administration was to be right about anything, I would have preferred it
to be right about the Iraqis welcoming us with flowers and dancing in the
streets.

And don't forget they will be marked made in America with a 2004 production
date!!

That must have been the "high ranking government offical" who's hiding them
at this very moment. Better not hide them too well. I think many have
stopped looking.
We may have to reinstall Saddam to control the home folks. His Generals are
on their way now to quiet things down until we leave. That "high ranking
government offical" better remember where he put them so we can remove all
traces before we leave. Wouldn't want to have to invade a country that we
had just reinstated their sovernity to look for the damn things again.
