No WMDs?
C.I.R. PRESS ALERT
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Just recently at around 1730hrs Senator Santorum and Representative Hoekstra had a press conference where they revealed their long time struggle to be able to declassify documents showing that Saddam Hussein did NOT destroy all of his WMDs. Some were found and it is believed more exist. These chemical weapons were a violation of resolutions and sanctions. Showed the UN monitoring was a joke. And they could have been used or sold on the blackmarket.
However, I waited for a while to see what would happen. Now an hour and a half later CNN and MSNBC proudly display “Murder charged against Marines.” Since this doesn’t fit their mold, I guess they decided to opt-out of carrying the story which relates to the main argument regarding the decision to go to war. Pathetic. And oddly Fox News still is carrying the Marines charged story, but atleast they reported on air of the conference.
[UPDATE: 0028hrs 7 hours later, Fox News has added the story on the site. BUT the other two continue to go with "Marines Charged." I can't even find anything about the WMD story on the other 2 networks sites.]
[UPDATE: 0930hrs, 6/22; 16 hours later, The other two continue to go with "Marines Charged." I can't even find anything about the WMD story on the other 2 networks sites.]
[UPDATE: 24 hours later, CNN continues to go with anything but the story. MSNBC is now running the headline: Officials: U.S. didn’t find WMDs, despite claims, even though the first line is "Senior U.S. intelligence officials said Thursday they have no evidence that Iraq produced chemical weapons after the 1991 Gulf War, despite recent reports from media outlets and Republican lawmakers." The lawmakers clearly said they were pre-1991 WMDs! ]
