| #5 Why the Norks' nukes are still standing is beyond me, tho. Because we have a "Coward in Chief". |

| #4 Might need the Norks to do a 'proof of principle' field test of the deep perpetrator bunker buster with an induced sympathetic reaction to 'burn' the material stored so it will look like another 3rd world accident when playing with nasty stuff. |

| #3 But what of the trace uranium found in the soil samples? Israel must have planted that, said Assad. After all, he said, Syria aspires for a nuclear-free Middle East. Uh, huh! Caught red-handed and even the Germans know the truth. This(Hadley) predates the American airspace hand-off to Iraq and were probably allowed Iraqi airspace and support and any coastal planes decoys. Unfortunately, any future cooperation cannot be expected with this Admin. Why the Norks' nukes are still standing is beyond me, tho. |

| #2 I still suspect that they had covert help. The high performance aircraft coming in from the coast would light up the Syrian air defenses like a Christmas tree, but all pointing towards the coast. While this was taking place, a much slower and heavier aircraft would enter via Iraq, carrying one or more bunker busters. But it is unlikely that Israel has such an aircraft, that could overfly Iraqi airspace with little notice. It would have been much easier for the US to provide both aircraft and bombs. |
