Ex Defense Official: Russia Moved Iraqi WMDs

This past weekend, former Deputy Undersecretary of Defense John Shaw told an audience at a privately-funded "intelligence summit" that Saddam's WMD removal prior to the Iraq War was "a well-orchestrated campaign using two neighboring client states with which the Russian leadership had a long time security relationship." Russian special forces moved the weapons themselves across the border to Syria.

Shaw also spoke of the fierce battle within the CIA and DIA in which pro- and anti-Bush forces were fighting to control policy.

Read the article here - you probably won't be seeing it elsewhere in the MSM. The funny thing is that the media/Democratic coalition has taken as conventional wisdom that there simply were no WMDs and will dismiss as fantasy any new evidence to the contrary.
