Too Late Now!

Shocking New Revelation

This is new information everyone should know. You will find verification links at the end of this shocking article.

This has been flying under the radar. Read the MSNBC article and check the truthorfiction.Com site. The TruthOrFiction version is shown below. This event is factual. I have an increased respect for President Bush. He has taken the heat of being called a liar and a war mongerfor 5 years while he kept his silence to protect the people of the world. This is truly a display of selfless honor.
On July 5, 2008 , the Associated Press (AP) released a story titled: Secret U.S. Mission hauls uranium from Iraq.

The opening paragraph is as follows:

The last major remnant of Saddam Hussein's nuclear program a huge stockpile of concentrated natural uranium reached a Canadian port Saturday to complete a secret U.S. Operation that included a two week airlift from Baghdad and a ship voyage crossing two oceans.

See anything wrong with this picture? We have been hearing from the far-left for more than five years how Bush lied. Somehow, that slogan loses its credibility now that 550 metric tons of Saddam's yellowcake, used for nuclear weapon enrichment, has been discovered and shipped to Canada for its new use as nuclear energy.

It appears that American troops found the 550 metric tons of uranium in 2003 after invading Iraq . They had to sit on this information and the uranium itself, for fear of terrorists attempting to steal it. It was guarded and kept safe by our military in a 23,000-acre site with large sand beams surrounding the site.

This is vindication for the Bush administration, having been attacked mercilessly by the liberal media and the far-left pundits on the blogosphere. Now that it is proven thatPresident Bush did not lie about Saddam's nuclear ambitions, one would think the mainstream media would report the story. Once the AP released t he story, the mainstream media should have picked it up and broadcast it worldwide.

This never happened, due in large part I believe, to the fact that the mainstream media would have to admit they were wrong about Bush's war motives all along. Thankfully, the AP got it right when it said,
The removal of 550 metric tons of yellowcake the seed material for higher-grade nuclear enrichment was a significant step toward closing the books on Saddam's nuclear legacy.

Closing the book on Saddam's nuclear legacy. Did Saddam have a nuclear legacy after all? I thought Bush lied. As it turns out, the people who lied were Joe Wilson and his wife.

Valerie Plame engaged in a clear case of nepotism and convinced the CIA to send her husband on a fact finding mission in February 2002, seeking to determine if Saddam Hussein attempted to buy yellowcake from Niger . The CIA and British intelligence believed Saddam contacted Niger for that purpose but needed proof.

During his trip to Niger , Wilson actually interviewed the former prime minister of Niger, Ibrahim Assane Mayaki. Mayaki told Wilson that in June of 1999, an Iraqi delegation expressed interest in 'expanding commercial relations' for the purposes of purchasing yellowcake.

Wilson chose to overlook Mayaki's remarks and reported to the CIA that there was no evidence of Hussein wanting to purchase yellowcake from Niger .

However, with British intelligence insisting the claim was true, President Bush used that same claim in his State of the Union address in Jan uary of 2003.

Outraged by Bush's insistence that the claim was true, Wilson wrote an op-Ed in the New York Times in the summer of 2003 slamming Bush.

Wilson did this in spite of the fact that Mayaki said Saddam did try to buy the yellowcake from Niger . The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence disagreed with Wilson and supported Mayaki's claim. This meant nothing to Wilson who was opposed to the Iraq war and thus had ulterior motives in covering up the prime minister's statements.

It was a simple tactic really. If the far-left and their friends in the media could prove Bush lied about Hussein wanting to purchase yellowcake from Niger , it would undermine President Bush's credibility and give them more cause for asking what other lies he may have told.

Yet, the real lie came from Wilson, who interpreted his own meaning from the prime minister's statements and concluded all by himself that the claim of Saddam attempting to purchase yellowcake was 'unequivocally wrong.' Curiously, the CIA sat on this information and did not inform the CIA Director, who sided with Bush on the yellowcake claim. This was made public in a bipartisan Senate Intelligence Committee report in July 2004.

Valerie Plame also engaged in her own lie campaign by spreading the notion that the Bush administration outed her as a CIA agent. Never mind that it was Richard Armitage -- no friend of the Bush administration -- who leaked Plame's identity to the press. Never mind that Plame had not been in the field as a CIA agent in some six years.

The truth is, due to their opposition to the war, Joe Wilson,Valerie Plame, the mainstream media and their left-wing friends on the blogosphere engaged in a propaganda campaign to undermine the Bush administration. Now that Saddam's uranium has been made public and is no longer a threat to the world, do you think these aforementioned parties will apologize and admit they were wrong? Don't count on it. The rest of the American people should hear the truth about Saddam's uranium. It is up to you and me to inform them every chance we get.

As far as the anti-war crowd is concerned, the next time they say that, 'Bush lied,' we should tell them to, 'Have the yellowcake and eat it too.'

Im a Bush supporter, So I want to say that this is great and all...

But it's not the whole truth. This uranium was left over from nuclear programs that Saddam pursued in the 1980's. The Israelis took out the facility studying this stuff in '81 and the US did the same in '91. The IAEA knew about this material and was watching in closely. does it make it OK for Saddam to have Uranium? not really, but this wasn't a secret cache that he stockpiled after gulf war I to retaliate against the US.

I sure we don't know, and will ever know everything about Iraq, but this isn't a smoking gun example of why we should be there. My guess is that there IS something Bush knew and can't tell us- but this ain't it.

This has been in the news for months -- it was not covered up until after the election. It does not refute the Wilsons. Give it a rest.

Don't you cite a MSNBC article from July 5th? The election was held November 4th. This story didn't come out AFTER the election. And if it was indeed true that NEW caches of yellowcake were found subsequent to 2003, don't you think the GOP campaign team (and the yelling heads on Fox news)might have focussed just a little attention on it during the four months leading up to the election? Fact is, my rather quick due diligence research suggests that yellowcake recently transported to Canada had been stored, under guard, in inadequate, rotting containers in Iraq since before the First Gulf War in the early 90s (there are suggestions the compound was repackaged and desperate Iraqis actually used the old radioactive containers as drinking water containers)...if it was such a pressing issue maybe Big Poppa Bush should have cleaned up the mess almost two decades ago. There continues to be no valid evidence that any additional yellowcake was purchased after these caches left over from Saddam's original reactor program after Israeli fighter bombers witch slapped him in 1981. Who knows-it is late and perhaps I am wrong.......

I don't care how you cut that yellow cake; Bush and his cronies gained power through FEAR-MONGERING. I'd bet it's a big fat lie, anyway.

Yellowcake uranium stored in aging drums since before the Gulf War. Hmmmm....that sounds more like an ABANDONED program for the production of WMDs to me.

I was wondering when this would be reported... I have a friend in the service tell me this after the convoy to Can.

Where are those far left commenters now? Nothing to say?? ROFL...Bush is out..but he is getting the last laugh! But, wait a minute, that is not his style. Just a good man doing what he could to protect the country he loves!

Anonymous said...

Did we give it to the Canadians or sell it ?? It was said to be worth millions of dollors? That news was released in July, why worry about it now! No need to try to cover up Bush's errors now. He knows he did Americans wrong , he will just have to live with it!!

Imagine that! How about the Fairness Doctrine that they would like to re-impose...?

"It was said to be worth millions of dollars?"

Try billions, with a "b". No wonder we wanted to invade Iraq so bad. Thats worth more than their oil, and we don't have to drill.

Posts like this will make this blog a laughingstock! How is a news article 4 mounths before the election part of a cover-up until after the voting?

And the whole world knew about the cache for years -- well before the 2nd Iraq war. What was done secretly was the removal -- to avoid possible attacks, etc.

9:10. Thank you for noticing. the reason I am most likely unelectable to any office(outside Assistant to the Assistant of the Grand POO-Bah at my local Water Buffalo Lodge) is I genuinely try to bring people together to make things better. Explore the concepts of John Locke and social contract theory. However, contracts must be based on facts, trust and goodwill; and not hearsay and innuendo. This usually absolutely pisses off at least 30-35% of the population at any given time when I confront them in this regard. The First Amendment to our Constitution, to me, is one of the greatest compilations of rights anyone on this planet can enjoy. You have to love living in a country where the Supreme Court has confirmed, in writing, the RIGHT to be offensive (obscenity and inspiring mobs is still not cool). What bothers me in these blog times is stuff like this. I saw the post around 9 pm and thought someone spiked my evening "milk and cookies." Using just some basic common sense (the "this doesn't smell right test") and a Google search or two, I was able to take a crash course on yellowcake and TWO sets of failed Bush policy. If you wanted to see the truth-it was plainly there. I remember a similar feeling regarding the smear attempts on President Elect Obama regarding his birth certificate issue. Do any of you honestly believe that (forget about the GOP) Hillary Clinton (within his own party) would have allowed this man to steal her thunder and subsequent nomination if she (a very savvy, intelligent lawyer type) even entertained the idea that Obama may not be a legit candidate? Fighting over whose god is the best or who has the shiniest American flag lapel pin is just chicken-poo to me-life is too damn short. Express your opinions in detail with passion, without shame, but do some basic research so that whatever evidence and opinion you offer has credibility. I mean C'mon...what was MSNBC (a major news source-not just a blog)thinking with the Palin accusations that she thought Africa was a country and not a continent (insert embarassing retraction here)? That crap is just unacceptable and divisive.

This obviously was kept "secret" by not being put on the front page or on any of the Primetime news times. The only thing I don't get is why it wasn't all over FOX news, they have the same access to the AP. This only proves that no one watches MSNBC. It's bad enough the DT prints letters to the Editor calling for the impeachment of Bush with no charges or proof, but my husband had to prove their were ties btwn Odinga and Obama in his letter. The media is totally in the "liberal" tank.

About the yellowcake itself. It's still dangerous, no matter if it was there before the 1st Gulf War and since the UN didn't depose of Saddam then how could GH Bush go against the UN and take it without causing another "liberal" hissy-fit.

11:15. That is just it-IF FOX NEWS DIDN'T RUN WITH IT, THAT DOG WAS UNABLE TO HUNT!!!!!!!!!!! You aren't trying to suggest that there isn't a Fox TV exec. (or seventeen) watching every second of excruciating minutia of his MSNBC competitor so that he can immediately pounce on apparent chicken quano? Think on a smaller scale of how this blog and another local purported news source conduct intelligence on each others postings and comments. Quite frankly, if you have read all this and still failed to conduct your own diligent, intelligent research-I actually pray for you (and any dependents you may be mentoring). Someone following blatantly failed dogma so blindly in the Middle East would make a martyr videotape and then be subsequently be strapped into a home made vest of C4, nails, and marbles and sent into a crowded marketplace of women and children to REALLY SHOW US YOU WERE RIGHT. Think about that.

Mr. Booby...a little Talladega Humor :)
It's not a good story, I just wonder why MSNBC said anything about the Valerie Plame affair at all, bringing up what nut jobs that pair was. Nigeria has only 3 main exports and only 1 of them is different than Iraq's...yellowcake. So sending him there and then him returning saying that DOG won't hunt as you put it, was dumb. I known this has been discussed before, but why did they bother.
I would like to point out that this was put out by MSNBC in the middle of the night on a Long Holiday weekend-July 5th was a Saturday, and although the Fox Website had a story on it, it was not really brought up at the major news outlets as a way of making Bush look even worse. That's the amazing thing. Snopes has this as a lie because of the dates and the whole Joe Wilson controversy, but the actual story without the Joe Wilson didn't lie backstory is true.
