1. I'll ask again.

My topic got locked because I didn't have a link. Sorry, I'm new. I think this story is typical BS. Has anyone heard anything else.

2. I think it might be a diversion

to get our thoughts off the treasonous actions of this administration.

3. Yep

Probably so.

4. Wilson Who?

Don't look there, look here! See, people successfully got through security checkpoints all throughout Iraq, intending them to be smuggled through a country with more American military forces - to an unnamed Old European country!

The value of these WMD has been determined to be $60 million (US), with a possible street value of over #360 million.

6. you might want to edit your subject line

LBN rules state that the subject line of the thread must be the same as the headline in the article you're quoting.

In this instance, the correct subject title should be: Kuwait foils smuggling of chemicals, bio warheads from Iraq

If you don't change it, there's a good chance they'll lock your thread

7. Very odd... just checked a major news link source

scoured headlines from the past 6 hours (big stories will show up multiple times - sent out by newswire services and then repackaged by specific outlets) - covers sources such as: cnn, msnbc, bbc, abc, bloomberg, christian science monitor, etc. Checked the Iraq stories. Nothing about this story.

Then did google news. searched for Kuwait. Only the Hindustantimes story came up. Curious as it says it is a newswire story - that noone else picked it up.

Something is wrong with the story. Either we will see it burst forth, or disappear. I almost suspect the latter - looks like a false story that got dropped elsewhere. Am open to the possibility that it will appear - but very, very skeptical.

10. I'm thinkin DEBKA

is the 'source' for such a pile of crap.

8. This is a crock. Single source BS, if you ask me.

9. Quite Odd

Smells like BS to me, I can't find anything else about it on the Internet and it seems like it would be quite the news story if it were true.
