April 13th 2003 : 101st Airborne DESTROYED "missing" explosives
2004-10-29
HT Drudge - WASHINGTON — A U.S. soldier is coming forward Friday to say a team from the 3rd Infantry Division took about 200 tons of explosives from an Iraqi military facility soon after Saddam Hussein's regime fell last year.
Explosives gn be "missing" when our folks go in & get rid of them. Seems logical to me!
The soldier will appear before reporters at noon, EDT. The briefing will be shown on the FOX News Channel. The announcement is the latest twist in the mystery over what happened to 377 tons of explosives that the International Atomic Energy Agency said had disappeared. The soldier's story comes as new videotape has surfaced that supports the contention that tons of the explosives were still at the base following Saddam's fall on April 9, 2003. U.S. officials had said they suspected the explosives were taken before U.S.-led forces took Baghdad.
MSM aka The official organs of the Kerry Campaign - DAMN FOILED AGAIN. I THOUGHT FOR SURE AFTER THE MINNEAPOLIS TV STATION VIDEO. Well at least we still have a Haliburton Scandal.
Videotape shot by a Minnesota television crew traveling with U.S. troops in Iraq when they first opened the bunkers at the Al-Qaqaa munitions base nine days after the fall of Saddam Hussein shows what appeared to be high explosives still in barrels and bearing the markings of the International Atomic Energy Agency. The video, taken by a reporter and cameraman employed by KSTP, an ABC affiliate in St. Paul, on April 18, 2003, was broadcast nationally Thursday on the ABC national network.
Now the news crew admit they don't know for sure the place shown on the video was even al-Qaqaa. Their own GPS showed a location several miles away.
