The New York Times shot themselves in the foot with this story and while they were at it also shot ElBaradei recent claims down like a brick. In short, in Feburary 2003, the Times reported that removal of munitions was set in motion by none other that Saddam Hussein before the war in Iraq started. They based their story as having come from none other that Mr. ElBaradei!!

For the full story please see www.frontpagemag.com. Also they have an excellent piece by Tom Lipscome on the commie connection documents.

Didn't Powell talk about the truck convoys going to Syria, did't he have the satellite photos/ I just know I saw and heard all this from Powell when he spoke to the UN council.
any one have a transcript of his presentation?
there was also a report a couple of weeks ago about the trucks moving and buildings that dissappeared apparently disassembled. Somebody here, I am sure, has this filed. Rush was talking about it.

I am certain there are satellite photos.

Mr. AJ: You have concern about info being withheld by admins on purpose? A clever calculation of when to reveal? Or just stupidity? CTW

Well ... in the past, truthfulness or lack of it has never hampered the NYT's ability to run a politically charged story Wink

Check the Drudge Report: The Russians helped them move the material and remove evidence of their cooperation with Iraq. Another indication why Russia did not wish to join the coalition. Not only does this information blow holes in the false reporting of Bush not guarding the explosives properly, but supports evidence of material related to a WMD program.

Pre-war Satellite Pics Show Truck Activity at Al Qaqaa
The Pentagon is examining evidence that could further discredit a report by the New York Times that hundreds of tons of high explosives were looted by terrorists from a major Iraqi weapons facility after the U.S. invaded in March 2003.

"Senior Pentagon officials say they are analyzing some satellite images from the Al Qaqaa facility south of Baghdad from before the war," the Fox News Channel's Bret Baier reported late Wednesday.

"Apparently, they show some large truck activity at that facility, [indicating] possibly that Saddam Hussein was moving the explosives out," Baier told Fox News host Greta Van Susteren.
Photos showing a pre-war truck convoy at Al Qaqaa would comport,
Baier said, with a January 2003 report by the UN's International Atomic Energy Agency revealing that 158 tons of the high explosive RDX had already gone missing from the site.

Experts say that to remove the 380 tons of high explosives reported missing from Al Qaqaa by the New York Times, it would take at least 40 trucks with a ten-ton capacity.

On Wednesday Iraq war veteran Ken Dixon, who was with the 101st Airborne division when it reached Al Qaqaa on April 10, said he noticed tracks from heavy truck tires outside the three bunkers he inspected.
