Weapons taskforce leaves in failure (Rory McCarthy in Baghdad Monday May 12, 2003 ) >>> The US military task force hunting for chemical, biological and nuclear weapons in Iraq is to leave within a month, having found no trace of any illegal weapons, according to a report yesterday. Troops with the 75th Exploitation Task Force, which has led the search for Saddam Hussein's banned weapons programme over the past seven weeks, say they are increasingly frustrated with their failure to find any banned weapons, the Washington Post said. The news came as the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, General Richard Myers, told reporters at Camp as-Sayliyah in Qatar that banned weapons may still be in the hands of Iraqi republican guard units. The US authorities "are asking ourselves" whether that danger still existed, Gen Myers said. "We try to interrogate [prisoners] with that in mind." Colonel Richard McPhee, who will conclude the 75th Task Force's operations in June, told the Washington Post that intelligence reports before the war showed Saddam had given "release authority" for chemical weapons to be used. "There had to have been something to use - and we haven't found it," he said. "Books will be written on that in the intelligence community for a long time. My unit has not found chemical weapons. That's a fact." Another, larger US force - the Iraq Survey Group - will be sent out to continue the search for weapons, but it will include fewer specialists, the paper said. Coalition officials, including George Bush himself, have said recently that the work of inspecting sites had only just begun. Of a US central command list of 19 top weapons sites, all but two have been searched already. Another 45 sites searched so far from a list of 68 thought to contain some evidence of banned weapons have also yielded nothing. "We came to bear country, we came loaded for bear, and we found out the bear wasn't here," an officer with the US defence intelligence agency was quoted as saying. <<< tak ta dočasnost asi bude také 1 FURT

The BBC's Caroline Hawley in Baghdad says Iraqis have become increasingly frustrated that their lives remain in chaos more than a month after Saddam Hussein's regime was toppled. Several Baghdad neighbourhoods still lack electricity and running water, rubbish is piled up in the streets and many shopkeepers are reportedly too afraid of looters to re-open their businesses. There is a lack of security, ministries are not working properly and salaries are not being paid. Even some within the reconstruction operation admit it has not gone to plan and that the US and Britain were unprepared for rebuilding Iraq.

BBC>>>Tony Blair is risking his own legacy because he is "increasingly obsessed with his place in history", Clare Short has said after quitting the cabinet. ....... "There is no real collective responsibility because there is no collective - just diktats in favour of increasingly badly thought through policy initiatives that come from on high", she continued. ......Ms Short also complained that she first learnt of the detail of a new UN resolution on rebuilding Iraq from BBC News Online, when her department is supposed to have a key role in the country's reconstruction. ...... She called the UK's position "totally dishonourable". "I cannot defend it. It is wrong in international law and for the rebuilding of Iraq and it breaches the promises that the prime minister gave to me," she told BBC News. She warned that the UK was colluding in a resolution which could perpetuate international divisions, marginalise the UN and make it more difficult to rebuild Iraq. ...... "To the prime minister, I would say that he has achieved great things since 1997," she said. "But paradoxically, he is in danger of destroying is legacy as he becomes increasingly obsessed with his place in history." She predicted Labour was entering "rockier times" when MPs would need to prevent the government departing from the party's best ..... <<<<

Mas pravdu, USA skutecne svymi akcemi od poloviny minuleho stoleti rozsevaji poradek a lad. Jeste ze je Svet ma, jeste ze ma americky lid vedeny velikanem GWB, ktery se pravidelne rano modli a chodi behat a tak. Vsichni (cela trida) jsme moc radi ze se nemusime ted jako bat chodit ven a tak. Opravdu, zeme ktere byly Amerikou osvobozeny nebo aspon osvobozovany si moc pomohly. No pocitejte se mnou: Vietnam, Laos, Guatemala, Kongo, Angola, Nikaragua, El Salvador, Libanon, Grenada, Filipíny, Haiti...

Re: Vymyty mozek rekne - je to podvod.... ale je doopravdy ??

Nic podobného dokázat nemohu, protože zbytky mozkové kůry nemám. Mám jí hezky kompletní a plně funkční. Dokázat to ale také nemohu, protože je to axiom. Kromě toho nehodlám nikomu nic dokazovat, díky USA máme demokracii i my a tudíš si každý může vytvořit svůj vlastní názor a najít si libovolné informační zdroje. Počítače a internet pocházejí mimochodem též z USA.

poučení ze slabomyslnosti

Takže po měsíci pochopili v USA, že stanovit ženu na místo správce Bagdádu v muslimské zemi je naprostá slabomyslnost, prorože ji nikdo nebude poslouchat.

Re: poučení ze slabomyslnosti

Pochytané teroristy na Guantanámu hlídaly od začátku téměř výhradně ženy. Pomáhalo to snížit jejich sebevědomí, aby nebyli tak vzpurní.

To je fakt neuvěřitelné.

Oni tu obnovu Iráku snad zvládnou ještě rychleji než bojové akce. Za pár let bude z Iráku bohatá a kvetoucí země, které budeme moci jenom závidět, stejně jako ze všech poražených nepřátel USA. Škoda že jsme s nimi taky neprohráli.

Re: To je fakt neuvěřitelné.

Ty už jsi prohrál - souboj s vlastní hlavou. Vyhrála tvoje dutá palice.
