Rescue Staged

[djv]

Now reporting Lynch rescue was not nearly as we were told. Hospital was not even guarded. Had not been for a week. Info was sent to our troops several times come get them. They did after one informant told them coast all clear. They believed the one but not the others. So the camers rolled. I always thought that was strange. What the hell were those camers doing there in the first place. I mean we are going into a super hot spot. And the camers are rolling. In this daring raid. Two doctors were all that was there. Had been waiting wonder why it took us so long.
Like I said other day two more GI's died. Now yeasterday another. Not much said. Would have been more glory if they had been POW's. And that is dam sad.

One last item about this farce came out yesterday. Iraqi's Tryed to send Lynch back to us. The day befor we did this so called rescue in a abulance. They passed word out they were going to do this. What happened. We shot at the abulance so it retreated back to the hospital where she was being cared for.

It really is kind of disgusting when you think about it. Kind of like that bunker we bombed the first night of the war where Saddam was supposed to be. Now they say the friggen' place never even existed. And I don't think it would politcally correct to mention that these WMD's we knew he had have not been found yet. If we knew he had them why didn't we know where they are?
Oh yes and those photos of the loving Iraqis? Where are those oh so grateful souls now?

Yes and the pitcures of the big cement slaps. Under them was a chemical lab and maybe another bunker. Iraq said it was a school play ground. By golly it's a school play ground.
Someone maybe Rumsfeld might have been smoking to much weed.

Yes ? it does bother me that we haven?t found Saddam?s chemical and biological weapons, but not for the reasons you might suspect. Saddam was removed from power because he failed to provide the evidence that he had destroyed those weapons. The U.N. resolutions required this of him, and he failed to comply. Those same resolutions said that any member nation could use force to compel him to comply .. and that?s exactly what some member nations did.

My reason for concern is our intelligence capabilities. If we were so sure he had those weapons, why haven?t they been found? Certainly our intelligence agencies were telling Bush that Saddam definitely had them ? so, where are they? If they?re not to be found, what does this say about our intelligence capabilities? In this age of Arab Islamic terrorism directed against the people of the United States we can ill afford intelligence lapses like this.

Exactly right Turfgrass!
