Iraqi 'terror ships' at sea
By Patrick McGowan, Evening Standard
19 February 2003
Three huge cargo ships feared to be carrying Iraqi weapons of mass destruction are being tracked around the world by British and American intelligence.

The vessels, which have been at sea for three months, are believed to be carrying weapons smuggled out through Syria or Jordan.

1. Probably another Dough Feith "special"

Hoepfully in a few years the real truth about all the lies generated from this administration in the Iraq build-up will be revealed.

To me, the biggest lie is Bush wanting to attack Iraq "as a last resort" - what baloney.

3. I remember Fux News reporting this story

They were called the "Mystery Ships". The story of Saddam's "Deadly WMD Drones" which turned out to be duds and the "ChemLab Trailers" which turned out to be rusty hulks are similar outrageous lies.
