Hail to the Thief!

Thursday, 28 October 2004

After three days of being flummoxed, the Bush administration finally came out with their response to the 380 tons of high explosive that went missing from Iraq's al QaQaa munitions dump. The Bushites are trying to sell the notion that the explosives might already have been gone before USA troops got there on 3 April 2003.

Unfortunately for them, there's video. KSTP, a local Minneapolis TV station, had a news crew embedded with the 101st Airborne during the invasion. At the time they had no idea where they were, but it turns out on 18 April 2003 they were camped a couple miles south of al QaQaa. They visited the bunkers and filmed the explosives. When they left, the doors were wide open.
