More On The Explosives Video

• October 31, 2004

The L.A. Times has a story up today about the Minnesota television station’s alleged video of the explosives in Iraq.
Here’s the most important paragraph in the whole article:
The report by KSTP television of St. Paul, an ABC affiliate, said its crew was embedded with the Army’s 101st Airborne Division and reached a site that appeared to be Al Qaqaa on April 18. ABC News reported Thursday that weapons experts had said that the site the crew videotaped appeared to contain powerful HMX explosives.

See that word, “appeared”? It means they are not sure they were even at Al Qaqaa. It also means that they’re not even sure or what they were seeing in the bunker they were at.
Yet somehow the L.A. Times calls this video of we-don’t-know-what the most important piece of evidence in the explosives story.
Somehow, I’m not coming to that same conclusion.

Rob, now you’re just in denial.

If you actually try to pin down the timeline of who destroyed what, when it was moved, what was moved, we are still in a mystery land about all that.

Well, at least with regard to this one bunker and the film shows one seal, one bunker, one group of soldiers going through and there were others there that were sealed, with this one, I think it is game, set and match.

I guess we all get to choose our own Kool-ade. One man’s “game, set, match.” is another man’s question mark.
