1. Whats stupid...

is assuming that will ever happen. In Iraq or anywhere else in the world for that matter.

[NNN0LHI]

16. People tend to mock what they fear

Ever notice that before?

Don

[Techno Dog]

18. No

people mock statements made to inflame that have no basis in fact.

[NNN0LHI]

25. Do you live your life based strictly on factual events?

Do you never plan for possibilities that are not under your control?

Have you ever purchased insurance?

Don

[Techno Dog]

26. non sequiturs aren't my forte n/t

[NNN0LHI]

29. Dodging questions appears to be your forte? n/t

[Techno Dog]

31. I'm not interested

in answering your question unrelated to your op or the post I replied to.

But here goes anyway.

Yes
Yes
No

[LiberalVoice]

22. Oh I see....

So because I mocked the idea that Osama will be captured by US forces im afraid huh? Do you think perhaps its because the US govt. doesn't want to catch him? I mean if you think they actually do you are very naive. Its not in the best interest of this Administration and their Saudi allies.

[NNN0LHI]

24. Catch him?

We won't be any catching him? The best we will ever get is a framed photo of a bloodied up dead guy who resembles Osama bin Laden after a couple of 500 pound bombs are dropped on or near him while hiding in a safe house.

Hell, we won't even know if it is the fat Osama or the skinny Osama. And nobody will care either.

That is what I am saying.

Don

[LiberalVoice]

35. Well I agree with you on that.

No one will care. We might but the nation as a whole wont give a shit.

[Olney Blue]

2. Do you think bin Laden would be stupid enough to go to Iraq?

just askin....

[Thickasabrick]

3. That's what cold storage and planes are for.

[Toots]

41. Do you think Americans are stupid enough to believe he did?

just saying....they put the Bush* Cabal into power didn't they?

[seabeyond]

4. ???? just sayin, do you suggest bin laden was/is friend of saddam?

really i want to know. you put this post up and it is suggesting that bin laden is connected with saddam. do you have information the rest of the world doesnt have, .... not that the right has the info either, but they say it too. just sayin

[NNN0LHI]

9. Is what I am suggesting is that Bush holds all the cards

Bush and his minions can make things appear to happen that didn't necessarily happen the way they say it did. We have seen it before.

We would probably do well to keep all of our bases covered knowing that.

Don

[seabeyond]

14. ah, i see. thanks fo rthe post. you had me concerned

i have read you before and didnt sound like you. i hear what you are saying but i don't think bush gets away with that shit anymore. they arent believed anymore. the strong majority see them as liars. wmd last week fell on face. miami 7.... another one. people arent buying bush and they would never buy that one

[Techno Dog]

20. You give Bush

way to much credit. If he was as powerful as you say he would have given SS to to his wall st buddies.

He would have planted WMD's

[NNN0LHI]

21. Can't plant WMDs with UN high-resolution spy satellites parked over Iraq

Missing Iraq Weapons Concern U.N.

Satellite Imagery Shows Material Has Been Removed From 109 Sites


(CBS/AP) U.N. satellite imagery experts have determined that material that could be used to make biological or chemical weapons and banned long-range missiles has been removed from 109 sites in Iraq, U.N. weapons inspectors said in a report obtained Thursday.

U.N. inspectors have been blocked from returning to Iraq since the U.S.-led war in 2003 so they have been using satellite photos to see what happened to the sites that were subject to U.N. monitoring because their equipment had both civilian and military uses.

"Particularly because of the continued insurgency in Iraq, U.N. weapons experts are concerned about missing biological and chemical weapons," said CBS News Foreign Affairs Analyst Pamela Falk from the U.N. "Satellite imagery has its limits and inspection experts are hoping to be able to get back into Iraq to find out if the weapons are missing or were destroyed."

In the report to the U.N. Security Council, acting chief weapons inspector Demetrius Perricos said he's reached no conclusions about who removed the items or where they went. He said it could have been moved elsewhere in Iraq, sold as scrap, melted down or purchased.


Even Bush knew that.

[Techno Dog]

27. No kidding

but you said.....

"what I am suggesting is that Bush holds all the cards"


Make up your mind.

[NNN0LHI]

28. Hauling trucks full of tons of WMDs would be a lot more noticable...

...than a stiff in an ambulance in Iraq. Lots of stiffs in ambulances in Iraq these days.

Don

[Techno Dog]

32. Sure

But if Bush held all the cards what was noticeable wouldn't matter now would it?

[NNN0LHI]

34. He holds all the American cards. The military, the CIA, the NSA, etc.

But no he does not hold all the cards in Russia or China. That is who was watching us in Iraq.

Don

[Techno Dog]

36. Who is watching Pakistan? n/t

[cherokeeprogressive]

30. Hold on a minute here

UN satellites showed material that COULD have been used "to make biological or chemical weapons and banned long range missiles" WAS in Iraq as late as 2003? Is that what you're saying?

UN weapons experts were "concerned about missing biological and chemical weapons" in 2003?

Were there WMD in Iraq in 2003 or not?

I've taken on faith the information that I hear from AP, UPI, Reuters, Al-Jazeera, and every other "trusted" news source that says THERE WERE NONE.

Were they there, or weren't they?

[NNN0LHI]

33. From the same article:

>>>The report also provided much more detail about the percentage of items no longer at the places where U.N. inspectors monitored them.<<<


Everything had been under UN monitor since 1991. Until Bush invaded.

Don

[WePurrsevere]

37. Having material to make WMD doesn't mean they have ALL needed or that it's

all usuable in the form they have it in. If you want to get technical, if that were the case, one could say that Home DePot and Lowes has material to make "WMDs". ;)

If WMD's.... REAL honest to goodness USABLE one's (unlike Sanatorum's recent "doa" kind) had been found or were absolutely known to be there and gone missing, we never would have heard the end of it from BushCo/Fox "news"... well... unless of course they wanted them to go missing for some reason....

5. We'll find out on

10/15/06 or there abouts.

[journalist3072]

7. October surprise? eom

[tridim]

11. I think they'll save him for 08 n/t

[tyedyeto]

6. IF it does happen...

will the average American believe it?

That would be one news report most people I know would never believe.

[LiberalVoice]

10. Well judging by past events...

the American people will eat it up. I swear some people at DU give the American public wayyyyyyyyyy too much credit.

[RufusEarl]

12. @ 28% would believe it!

And of course all Faux watchers. But i'm beginning to think, that most americans wont! Right now a large % of folks are having a hard time buying into the seven terrorists from Miami, so i'm guessing/hopping the shine is wearing off.

[journalist3072]

8. BUSH will still look stupid, because

All our side has to do is play the soundbite of Bush saying he doesn't spend much time on Osama; that he doesn't know or care where he is.

[LiberalVoice]

13. You think that will work?

And where exactly are people going to play it? On the news? Yeah right. Goodluck fitting that in between the 24 hour Osamathon.

[NNN0LHI]

15. Bush will look smart for luring bin Laden into Iraq to kill him

That sound bite you suggest won't work.

Don

[Swamp Rat]

17. Bushler... for killing his best friend in the whole wide world.

[originalpckelly]

19. Some private bounty hunter should go after OBL...

and get that little prick! 27 million bucks, you'd think that would be motive enough. Of course al-Qaeda would probably hunt the person for the rest of their life.

[Rosemary2205]

38. Ya mean like DOG?

Sic Duane on him? Hey, that guy manages to get his perps within 24 hrs and without a gun! Makes even Swartzkopf look like a panzie.

[Rex]

23. No one is going to believe a photo.

Modern civilization makes us cynical and photos are so easy to manipulate. They will have to put the body on display (laugh if ya want), probably in the Rose Garden. It will give them a tremendous boost going into the 2008 elections. Senator Chuck Hagel will win in 2008. Just saying...

[Evergreen Emerald]

39. ummm...they believed the photo of Zarqawi

I do not believe one thing that this administration says. They created Zarqawi and at the political campaign season kick-off trotted a dead guy out that looked like him (after 2 500 lb bombs dropped on him, decimating his house and giving him a black eye) Where was the DNA, where was the proof? Not even a question about it in the media.

This society, that voted for Bush on a pack of lies will believe anything.

I would not put it past this administration to trot out a picture of dead Bin Laden, in September (just before troop withdrawl)

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

40. I think he's saving Bin Laden to be caught in Iran. ;) eom
