>>"Various officials differed in opinion as to whether the buried aircraft could ever fly again. Many of the planes were buried intact with minimal efforts to protect them from the sand."<<

Yup, food for thought......
...in 45 minutes those Iraqis were going to dig up the planes then combine those documents in the Iraqi "scientist's?" backyard, with the uranium from Niger, build a Nuke and fly it into the WH.

Btw, how come our superior "intelligence" that knew about all those WMDs, didn't know that the Iraqi infrastructure....water, electricity etc was in such bad shape??

He said the planes were not considered weapons of mass destruction for which coalition troops have been searching for months, ''but they are weapons (Iraq) tried to hide.''

They really buried that paragraph in the story.

What are we to reason from the story?

1 The planes were so good we hid them.
2 The planes were so bad we hid them.
3 We can put our planes anywhere we want to.

Did we go to war because (IRAQ) tried to hide weapons?

So it wasn't weapons of mass destruction.It was just weapons.
