Silly fool, this is obviously a CIA sponsored news story in order to scare the American public into supporting military action.

SEALs should take those ships.  They have trained for and performed missions just like this.  If the ship is in port they can take it before the camel jockeys can scuttle it.

Hmmm... Shortly after 9-11, SBS commandos raided a cargo ship in the English channel which was 'suspect' and subject of an intel tip-off. It too had stopped at Yemen, but they found nothing but cotton. Things are not always what they would at first seem.

Saurdaukar - I'll just consider that a very inept slur. I've never compared Bush to Hitler, and therefore accept your apology in advance.

Seems strange that it was only the other day that you were criticizing me for 'attacking people for expressing points, ideas and opinions'. Oh dear.

cotton? well, maybe they've been at sea for three months waiting for prices to go up?

Yes, and I believe it was the Italian (or was it Spain?) Navy that boarded a North Korean freighter looking for WMD-Terrorists and found only concrete..... oh, well and SCUD missiles artfully hidden underneath all that.

Of course if they were boarded and all sorts of nasty weapons found there would only be shouts that there is no proof they belonged to Iraq.

Some will never be convinced that Saddam has to go and it's a waste of time trying to convince them.

WOW!  That HAD to be no more than 30 seconds between my post and your response!  I am extremely impressed.  

Although, I will admit that as a stupid Yank, I obviously dont possess the intellectual prowess that you so frequently display here, and as a result, Im not sure what Im apologizing for... but you cant be wrong, so - Im sorry and it will never happen again.

This is FUN!  :D

Actually, yeah, it is propaganda, just like the report that Iraq was threatening Germany with smallpox.


So, who told them there were three cargo ships sailing around, acting funny?
Anyone get the names or registrations of those ships?
Is anybody besides the guys with the spy satellites and black helicopters able to confirm this story?
And does anybody honestly believe the US is so worried about "environmental damage" that they'll skip a perfect opportunity to invade iraq?  Come on, a few navy seals, it's at least a 50-50 chance.  Either you capture the ship, and show off the WMD, or you cause them to create a natural catastrophe, at which point the seals disappear, and you get to accuse them of actually using WMD.
The only way you can lose is if you capture three ships and find no such thing.

Whether Iraq actually has smallpox WMD or three death ships on the ocean is irrelevant.

So, we've already determined the ships are a myth? That really does reveal the attitude shared by many. The US government is so corrupt that it will lie about anything to steal Iraq's oil.

Please tell me you don't really believe that.

Can you please please post some source that debunks that German intel report? No one would be happier than me if you could show me a document debunking that report. I mean seriously.
