Message No body can convice me that Iraqi does not have weapons =
of world destruction buried in the sands of Iraqi . Your =
President was right in what he done . Read on. =20
Something else you won't see on the 6:00 news =20
SEEING IS BELIEVING! =20
CHECK THESE PICTURES OUT! Scroll all the way down!
All photos courtesy of MSGT T. Collins, USAF =20
The Iraqi jet, an advanced Russian MiG-25 Foxbat, was found buried in =
the sand after an informant tipped off U.S. troops. =20
The MiG was dug out of a massive sand dune near the Al Taqqadum =
airfield by U.S. Air Force recovery =20
teams. The MiG was reportedly one of over two dozen Iraqi jets buried =
in the sand, like hidden treasure, =20
waiting to be recovered at a later date. Contrary to what some in the =
major media have reported, not all the jets found were from the Gulf =
War era.=20
The Russian-made MiG-25 Foxbat being recovered by U.S. Air Force =
troops in the photos is an advanced reconnaissance version never before =
seen in the West and is equipped with sophisticated electronic warfare =
devices. =20
U.S. Air Force recovery teams had to use large earth-moving equipment =
to uncover the MiG, which is over 70 feet long and weighs nearly 25 =
tons. =20
The Foxbat is known to be one of Iraq's top jet fighters. The advanced =
electronic reconnaissance version found by the U.S. Air Force is =
currently in service with the Russian air force. The MiG is capable of =
flying at speeds of over 2,000 miles an hour, or three times the =
speed of sound, and at altitudes of over 75,000 feet.=20
The recovery of the advanced MiG fighter is considered to be an =
intelligence coup by the U..S. Air Force. The Foxbat may also be =
equipped with advanced Russian- and French-made electronics that were =
sold to Iraq during the 1990s in violation of a U..N. ban on arms sales =
to Baghdad. =20
The buried aircraft at Al Taqqadum were covered in camouflage netting, =
sealed and, in many cases, had their wings removed before being buried =
more than 10 feet beneath the Iraqi desert. =20
X Marks the Spot =20
The discovery of the buried Iraqi jet fighters illustrates the problem =
faced by U.S. inspection teams searching Iraq for weapons of mass =
destruction. Iraq is larger in size than California, and the massive =
deserts south and west of Baghdad were used by Saddam Hussein to hide =
weapons during the first Gulf war. =20
U.S. intelligence sources have already uncovered several mass grave =
burial sites in the open deserts with an estimated 10,000 dead hidden =
there. In addition, Iraq previously hid SCUD missiles, chemical weapons =
and biological warheads by burying them under the desert sand. =20
U.N. inspection teams found the weapons in the early 1990s after =
detailed information of the exact locations was obtained. =20
Top U.S. weapons inspector Dr. David Kay is known to favor human =
intelligence as the primary means to find Iraq's hidden treasure trove =
of weapons and secrets. =20
While there are rumors of Iraqi chemical and biological weapons being =
shipped to nearby Syria, the weapons may very well still remain inside =
Iraq buried under the vast desert wastelands. =20
Some critics of the Bush administration have claimed that the inability =
of U.S. forces to uncover weapons of mass destruction is proof that the =
president misled the nation into the war with Iraq. =20
However, in recent days the critics have fallen silent as word quietly =
leaked from Iraq that major discoveries have already been made and are =
now being documented completely. Bush administration officials are =
keeping any such discoveries secret for the moment. Pray they will =
find something to close the mouth of all his critics before election =
day. KEEP THIS GOING =20
