WMD Story, Continued

There have been several recent reports about Russia's and Syria's assistance in moving Iraq's WMDs prior to the Iraq War, which is what many people have speculated since the Iraq War. Here is a good overview of the story at Frontpagemag.com. (Hat tip to Transterrestrial Musings for the link.) What bothers me most is that some elements in the CIA dismissed outright any evidence of Russian involvement as "Russophobia," stating that "the Cold War is over." Porter Goss is right - there is a significant battle going on within the Agency.

You would think that, with the thousands of MSM stories gushing about Iraq's innocence in the WMD arena, that we would have at least one story about the recent relevations regarding the Russian/Syrian alliance with Iraq in the WMD disposal. But then again, it's a bit like the Joe Wilson story - report on the story continually for weeks and months and then when the Senate Intelligence Committee determines that Wilson's story was a total fabrication - just ignore it.
