CNN has report with Iraqi Black Market Arms Dealer.....Question...
who would he have access for a secret interview with an Arms Dealer without our Military questioning this reporter? (It's a Blond British CNN Reporter over there.. Michael Barnes) Why would a real arms dealer talk to a CNN reporter in silhouette?

The report goes on about all these chaches stashed all over Iraq and he's making it sound like it's as "easy as getting a cell phone."

Who else thinks this is Propaganda leading up to CNN finding out the "Illegal Arms" are all from IRAN. It's the way CNN does things. They start slowly and then build up to convince Americans of what their "handlers" tell them.

I have no doubt there's a Black Market for arms in Iraq but I don't trust Michael Barne's very smooth report detailing and describing each bit of equipment. Bushies would have had him in Gitmo if he knows the guy who is selling these arms. :shrug:

1. I think they should verify
the serial numbers on those guns they showed and I bet they could trace them ALL back to Ronnie Raygun and Ollie baby.

2. I would wager
and I've heard accounts of this from troops. That a lot of the weapons being used against us are coming right out the back door of the green zone.
