Missing Explosives: Let me know if you see any sign of this in the U.S. MSM.

As American forces closed in on Baghdad last year, senior members of Saddam Hussein's government devised a plan to send suicide bombers in vehicles packed with devastating high-energy explosives that were under UN safeguards.

The disappearance of the explosive, known as HMX (high melting explosives), in mysterious circumstances at the end of the war caused a few nasty moments for President George Bush's presidential election campaign last month.

It's amazing Bush actually won with the press putting this story out days before the election, but he did, so no sense dragging this out - unless of course you care about getting important truthful information from the mainstream media. Even if I wanted Kerry to win, I certainly wouldn't want it done at the cost of turning the networks into propagandists for any candidate.

A letter to Saddam from Dr Naji Sabri, the Iraqi Foreign Minister, five days before the fall of Baghdad, suggests taking the HMX from underground bunkers, where it had been kept under seal by the International Atomic Energy Agency, and giving it to suicide bombers.

He wrote: "It is possible to increase the explosive power of the suicide-driven cars by using the highly explosive material [HMX] which is sealed by the International Atomic Energy Agency [IAEA] and stored in the warehouses of the Military Industry Departments."

Now what was that pre-election story about missing explosives again?
