Colin, you mean you *don't* believe the US is involved in Cocaine trafficing? (Trafficking? traffuckhowthehelldoyaspellthating?)
I sure think the CIA is. Nooo, I don't have any links...
A few days before the ultimatum was handed down, one ship left port from Iraq loaded to the gills and made for fast, deep waters and did her best to disappear.
Two days later two more ships left port, ambled along, and went along their merry way following normal routes and acting as if everything were normal.
The Navy is watching all of them, tracking all of them. They actually lost the first one for a short while but picked her up again about 24 hours later.
IF (yes I said if for the benefit of the skeptical) Saddam had any WMDs that the inspectors didn't find, I think he would've gotten it the hell out of dodge. He knew what was coming.
However, that being said, there are literally hundreds of suspected chemical sites in Iraq and our troops haven't even touched a handful of them. I think the last statistic I saw was that we'd been in 1% of them. So even after all of this is over, there will still be a LOT of searching to do, and it's going to take time.

There are hundreds of scientists in Iraq that will be interviewed after the fall of Iraq and will be able to conclusively prove Saddam's recent involvement in developing or storing WMD - assuming there has been.

I heard an interview with a man who claimed to be the head of Saddam's nuclear weapons program on the Art Bell show (yeah I know, consider the source - hey, I work late hours and don't want to watch Carlton Sheets infomercials) back in... god, September of last year I think? He said that when HE left(fled), Saddam was 6 months away from having nuclear capability, and he had already been gone a number of months.
I'm wondering now if this guy was real, why he hasn't been popping up on the TV shows. Could be that he still has family there he doesn't want endangered, could be the news shows don't want to spread "nuclear" panic, could be he was just a fake after all.
Either way, something interesting to think about.
