Where are the Iraqi WMD's?

Georges Sada, an ex Iraqi Air Force big-wig, says that Syria has them:

The man who served as the no. 2 official in Saddam Hussein's air force says Iraq moved weapons of mass destruction into Syria before the war by loading the weapons into civilian aircraft in which the passenger seats were removed.

The Iraqi general, Georges Sada, makes the charges in a new book, "Saddam's Secrets," released this week. He detailed the transfers in an interview yesterday with The New York Sun.

"There are weapons of mass destruction gone out from Iraq to Syria, and they must be found and returned to safe hands," Mr. Sada said. "I am confident they were taken over."

Mr. Sada's comments come just more than a month after Israel's top general during Operation Iraqi Freedom, Moshe Yaalon, told the Sun that Saddam "transferred the chemical agents from Iraq to Syria."

I think this warrants at least as much attention as the Bush lied, people died meme or the No blood for oil mantra or other oft repeated leftist harangues aimed at the current administration.

But don't think for a minute that the MSM will give any serious air-time to this story or to the book from which it comes...  you see, it's still the news that fits the template... and this doesn't qualify.

Thanks for posting this story about the WMD's. It definitely warrants looking into.

It is SO obvious that's what happened! But "obvious" doesn't sell newspapers.

I put in a request at my local library that they buy a copy. They are pretty responsive.
