Do you think that the Iraq Survey group had access to this information?
The problem is that Middle Eastern government, and thus the people hemselves, are NOT an open society...people here get the news from 700 sources and usually filter through what they want to hear...Over there, you get one choice shoved down your throat...other options are not available...GySgt said:Not many people are aware of Syria or the true issues throughout the Middle East.
The Syrians are treated very much like Iraqis were. There are feared to be mass graves. Reformacist inside Syria do not want American boots in their country, but they are outspoken for the agreeance with Bush foir the need to change. This doesn't sit well with the Baathist leadership that has been arresting up these individuals who want a better life and future for thei people.
The situation in Syria is very much a symptom of the decay inside the Middle East. Saddam and Bin Ladden were also a part of this decay. And people still search in vain for the how America has created all of the Islamic terrorists.:roll:
By the way....we have suspected since before the assault into Iraq that WMD was moved into Syria. Nothing new here.
Yes, I knew it. It was my theory from the biginning that the WMDs where moved to Syria. I think the Bush admin. knows it too. So much time is spent in Iraq for an example to Syria.It was also my theory from the biginning that Syria is next.Our military could have came home at least a year ago. Our bases will stay permanent as a staging area for the next war.....Thanks for the link, I posted it on freerepublic.comTrajan Octavian Titus said:Why isn't this story in the news?:

Why isn't this story in the news?
Alastor said:Well... because the story has no merit really, and the "sources" aren't really credible. That's a good start.
But it also doesn't help that the credible sources on the issue have all said it never happened.
So... that'd be why. There are other reasons as well of course, but these two are the ones that scream "duh" to me.
So the former head of the Iraq survey group isn't a credible source?
Sorry, I already posted and gave the site and author credit.Last i checked I got over 800 views. Repost it today and see how many hits it gets. It's a great way to get the story out. Since the media won't report it, it's up to people like us.Trajan Octavian Titus said:hay fellow freeper I'm a libertarian and a member of the free republic so atleast give me credit put this sight down as a place to find fact as opposed to bias.
I think this group could be just as credible as the UN inspectors. I remember the top Un inspector sayong that his primary goal is to stop a war before it happens.Doesn't sound like he was very impartial.Trajan Octavian Titus said:So the former head of the Iraq survey group isn't a credible source?:
Alastor said:I actually can't speak to that. I don't know anything about him; though I'll look this weekend.
I meant the site it appeared on - the one you cited.
If the head of the Iraqi survey group isn't a credible source then who is? Perhaps some beltway reporter that hasn't left D.C. in the past 20 years, come on now buddy.
Alastor said:Heh. Now that's funny. You quoted me and then completely ignored what I wrote, and addressed an issue I didn't raise, ignoring the one I did raise.
Here, I'll say it for you again:
"I actually can't speak to that. I don't know anything about him; though I'll look this weekend.

Trajan Octavian Titus said:... secondly the second artlicle uses quotes by the former head of the Iraq survey group claiming that he has good intel that WMDs went to Syria.
I take you find the ISG investigation unworthy for some reason?Trajan Octavian Titus said:Not massive stockpiles but incriminating evidence proving that Saddam did in fact violate the U.N. resolutions. I'm just wondering why don't people in the major media outlets go after these stories with the same feverish drive as they do trying to prove that Bush intentionally lied to lead us into a war for oil? Unbiased my ass bunch of freaking hypocrites if you ask me. This is a story that needs further investigation but will we get it? I doubt it.
