Of course, at the time nearly everyone believed what Powell believed, as evidenced by former U.S. weapons inspector David Kay who told CBS News Pentagon reporter David Martin that he was impressed with Powell's presentation. Martin moved on to other misguided assumptions, asserting "the intelligence about Iraq was not all wrong. On the eve of the invasion, CIA analysts, including Paul Pillar, warned the aftermath could get ugly." Martin also, however, pointed out that "bad intelligence about WMD started the war, but it can't be blamed for all that has happened since." Former CIA analyst John Brennan explained: "We would still have the same bloodshed, instability and destruction even if we did uncover those treasure troves of purported weapons." So, the fourth anniversary of Powell's presentation about WMDs really isn't relevant to the current situation, but that didn't deter CBS from bringing it up.Neither ABC's Word News or the NBC Nightly News brought up the four-year-old Powell presentation.
The MRC's Brad Wilmouth corrected the video against the closed-captioning for the February 5 CBS Evening News story:
Katie Couric: "And how's this for irony? Today's Capitol Hill confrontation began four years to the day after then-Secretary of State Colin Powell made a dramatic speech at the UN to make the case that Iraq was hiding weapons of mass destruction. It was a brilliant performance, enough to sell the Congress and the nation on going to war. But before long, it became an embarrassment. National security correspondent David Martin looks back four years later."The online CBSNews.com version of Martin's story, sans Couric's "embarrassment" spin.
Colin Powell at the UN, February 5, 2003: "What we're giving you are facts and conclusions based on solid intelligence."
David Martin: "That statement about the evidence Saddam Hussein was hiding weapons of mass destruction was made by one of the most trusted men in America. Weapons inspector David Kay remembers being impressed."
David Kay, former Chief U.S. Weapons Inspector: "It was partly because it came with Powell's reputation as much as the individual facts."
Martin: "He assumed the intelligence Powell had unveiled was only the tip of the iceberg."
Powell, at UN: "We have firsthand descriptions of biological weapons factories on wheels and on rails."
Kay: "To have detailed diagrams of what those labs looked like seemed to me it meant that you had pretty detailed intelligence from inside the program."
Martin: "But after the invasion, Kay was put in charge of finding the WMD, and he found out where those diagrams came from."
Kay: "It was a single source, a source that the U.S. intelligence had never at that point talked to, didn't know his name-"
Kay clip #2: "And, in fact, he was a fabricator."
Martin: "The intelligence about Iraq was not all wrong. On the eve of the invasion, CIA analysts, including Paul Pillar, warned the aftermath could get ugly."
Paul Pillar, former CIA counterterrorism officer: "It would be long, it would be turbulent, it would be filled with conflict and probably violence."
Martin: "But, says former CIA officer and now CBS consultant John Brennan, the administration passed over that intelligence."
John Brennan, CBS News terrorism analyst: "And I don't think there was enough attention paid to those assessments that said after the war, after the invasion, there's going to be difficulty in the streets of Iraq and in Baghdad."
Martin: "Bad intelligence about WMD started the war, but it can't be blamed for all that has happened since."
Brennan: "We would still have the same bloodshed, instability and destruction even if we did uncover those treasure troves of purported weapons."
Martin: "Powell now says his UN speech will forever be a blot on his reputation. And George Tenet, who was director of Central Intelligence at the time, admits in a soon-to-be-published book he let Powell down."

China issues expected angry statements after Taiwan says it will buy two vessels. But purchase is the first since 2010 and has little effect on the mainland's naval advantage vis-à-vis the democratic island.
Details are sketchy, but the $13 billion Daxing facility will be south of the capital and sport four runways. Local farmers are not happy about the prospect of relocation to make way for the facility, which is being announced just six years after the completion of what was the largest terminal in the world.
The Committee to Protect Journalists reports that the number of detainees spiked in 2014, and is the longest it's been since CPJ started tracking numbers in 1990.
Last year, Beijing had expected two million extra babies after loosening its longstanding one-child limit per couple. But only 700,000 more babies were delivered.
The police crackdown was widely expected as the protest movement has fizzled in recent weeks. Protesters insist that their movement for freer elections in Hong Kong will continue in another form.
Liu Tienan was sentenced Wednesday for bribery. President Xi Jinping is going after low-level functionaries as well, with some 84,000 officials disciplined in the first half of 2014.
What lies beneath says something about the Chinese military's priorities.
A sold-out tour of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" ended in Beijing last week. Meanwhile, a Chinese publishing house has nearly finished translating Shakespeare's works into Mandarin – both signs of the English playwright's surging popularity in China.
Transparency International ranked China 100th out of 175 countries on its annual Corruption Perception Index, sliding it down from 80th place last year. The new rankings reflect poorly on President Xi Jinping's widespread efforts to clamp down on corruption.
The theatrical attempt at 'surrendering' to authorities who weren't seeking the protest leaders' arrest comes amid flagging hopes of success for the Hong Kong democracy pressure group.
The ongoing student-led occupation of Hong Kong streets, and an electoral drubbing of the pro-China party in Taiwan on Nov. 29, are both about China keeping its distance.
Student protesters again defied police and surrounded official buildings to show it is the government and not the Hong Kong people they are targeting. Many parents are trying to get their kids off the front lines.
Spurred by discontented youth, the island shifted from political 'blue' to 'green' as the Nationalists lost key mayor races in Taipei and Taichung. The election outcome may create more distance in Taiwan-China relations.
What Confucian scholars in 81 B.C. could not change, today's market forces may. But what to do with 10,000 jobs in the table salt monopoly?
The blue Nationalists have run Taiwan's No. 3 city for years. But Lin Chia-lung, a Yale-educated mayoral candidate for the green opposition Taiwan-first party, may change that after tomorrow's election.
The Taipei mayor's race is the most watched, but there are 10,000 offices to fill on Nov. 29. The races are marked by mud-slinging and new debates over Chinese nationalism and Taiwanese identity.
The Central Committee focused its annual plenary meeting last month on promoting 'socialist rule of law' among Chinese. In one village, a lawyer who is part of the government's push helped resolved a dispute over a fish pond.
With the help of tear gas, police cleared demonstrators from Argyle Street in the district of Mong Kok prior to a larger eviction set for Wednesday. Protesters say China is not fulfilling an earlier promise for democracy in Hong Kong.
China says its construction of an island on top of a reef in the contested Spratly Islands is 'completely justifiable.' It appears the expanded island could accommodate an airfield.
Economist Ilham Tohti received a life sentence in September for 'splittism' and 'inciting hatred.' Many in the academic and diplomatic community say he is a rare prominent voice of moderation.
With Russia alienated by the West and China eager to buy high-end weaponry, a joint military pact – though still a long way off – looks increasingly seductive to both.
Gone are the days of bellicose speeches and saber-rattling by Beijing. Ahead of Taiwan's Nov. 29 local elections, China exerts influence through strategic spending, travel discounts for those returning to vote, and trade delegations.
After spending lavishly on Taiwan incentives, China is worried the island isn't moving swiftly enough towards unification. Democratic Taiwan didn't like China's attitude toward Hong Kong student protests for universal suffrage.
After a court order, students and city officials cooperated to unblock access to a skyscraper downtown. But whether the 'Umbrella Movement' will peacefully disperse all over Hong Kong is unclear.
The world's two most powerful leaders agreed on action on climate change, visas, and boosting investment. But vital questions remain about both countries' strategic ambitions in the region.

By Michael Montgomery-Exclusive to
Rare Earth Investing News
In this special two part series we will look at the investment
potential from
President Barack Obama
's challenge during the State of the Union address: to generate
80 percent of the electricity with renewable sources by the year
2035. This monumental task of moving the world number one
consumer away from
as the primary fuel for electrical generation, while
overwhelming, is entirely possible. Trillions of dollars could
potentially be spent on this project, many on small upstart firms
as well as many of the worlds leading companies. The shear size
of this task will use millions of tonnes of rare earth elements
for wind turbines,
for mirrors on condensed solar projects,
for steel and,
in batteries and the list goes on and on.
In researching the technologies available for this
transformation, I found that a few plans already exist created by
people far more knowledgeable about the monumental task of
determining energy policy than myself.
The most relevant plan to the Presidents challenge
comes from
, because of its goals within the alloted timeframe. Google's
plan is to achieve renewable energy cheaper than coal, and to
replace all coal fired plants by 2030. While the President's
challenge includes 'clean coal,' no such technology currently
exists. Google's plan eliminates coal entirely.
The Google plan has three main tenets:
Energy efficiency standards are the most beneficial to local
economies, as well as the cheapest way to cut back on fossil fuel
demand. The Energy Information Association (
) expects a 1 percent demand increase per year on average, add in
Google's plans for electric vehicles, an added 8 percent over the
time span of the project will put added demand in the system.
Over the 19 year period of the plan, the increased demand for
energy totals 27 percent. By using basic home efficiency
standards by 2030 this added demand can be held flat, if not
This can be achieved by requiring energy efficient appliances,
and proper home building standards. This is extremely beneficial
to local economies.
Rare Earth Investing News interviewed Brennen Jensen, Climate
Group Senior Program Manager for Ecology Action on the importance
of energy efficiency and its benefits to local
economies. "For every $1 dollar spent on energy efficiency,
$6-7 worth of economic gains is achieved on a local level through
job creation, and energy savings. It is entirely possible to
achieve 10 percent savings with the most basic efficiency
upgrades. To get 20-40 percent savings, more through measures
must be taken. Double pane windows and insulation, energy
efficient appliances and modern HVAC systems are needed," stated
Development of renewable energy cheaper than coal:
Investment potential lies withing the development of
renewable energy that is, ultimately, cheaper than coal. The
massive deployment of wind farms will require truly massive
amount of steel for the structures,
for the wiring, and most critically, rare earths for the
electric generation systems. Photovoltaic solar cells, in
particular thin film "CIGS" solar cells, use molybdenum as a
base for the other materials. Concentrating solar power (
) uses silver for the mirrors, steel, and host of other metals
depending on the type of CSP generation. The Google plan calls
for replacing all coal and
electricity generation, and about half of that from natural
, with renewable sources:
Let's start by breaking down wind power generation.
Please take note, these statistics are estimates to give scope
to the amount of materials needed, based on currently available
wind turbines. Undoubtedly, over the next 25 years there is a
real chance that strides will be made in efficiency, and
design. However, according to
Jevons Paradox
any increase in cost efficiency, or technological advance ends
with an increase, not a decrease in the use of the material;
when technology gets cheaper the market tends to demand more of
"To make the most efficient, lightest weight, lowest
service wind turbine generator of electricity takes one ton of
the rare earth metal, neodymium, per megawatt of generating
capacity," stated
Jack Lifton
, Co-founder and Director of Technology Metals.
The high concentration of neodymium and dysprosium in
the turbines of wind power when magnified on the scale in which
this plan is based is a huge investment potential. No one can
say whether the materials will be sourced from US or North
American mining operations, however, as of now, only one such
mine exists,
) owns the Mountain Pass mine in California.
In order to arrive at the total of rare earths used to
manufacture 380 Gigawatts of wind generation, some math is
380 GW=380,000 Megawatts multiplied by 1 ton rare earth
= 760,000,000 pounds of rare earth.
This is a staggering amount of metal over a 25 year
period. Molycorp's Mt. Pass Mine has a known reserves over 20
million pounds, and recently inked a deal with Hitachi Metals
to develop
rare earth magnets
. Most likely, the materials will come from a host of sites,
Lynas Corp's
) Mt. Weld deposit in Australia,
Great Western Minerals
) Steenkampskraal Mine in South Africa and Hodias Lake deposit
in Canada. And of course, a lot of the rare earth will come
from rare earths mined in China.
A few other junior miners are working on deposits
Quantum Rare Earth Development
) is working on their Elk Creek deposit in Nebraska.
Arafura Resources
) is developing their Nolans Deposit in Australia.
Stans Energy
) has made strides on their Kutessay II deposit in Kyrgyzstan.
These are just a few companies that are hoping to start
production on their deposits, for a list of rare earth
companies with a market cap under $2 billion, have a look at
Rare Earth Investing News'
Rare Earth index
Some analysts have suspected that the Chinese are
employing trade policies as strategy to produce wind turbines
and other high tech goods domestically in order to create
higher paying manufacturing jobs, while also reaping the
increased profits of selling value added products over raw
materials. The nation is now home to the highest amount of wind
power generation.
The typical 1.5 MW wind turbine in the US is 80 meters
tall, and uses 58,000 pounds of steel to reinforce the concrete
tower. There are much larger wind turbines being developed
right now, upwards of 10 MW, which are larger, and use more
steel and larger magnets.
The plan to generate 380 Gigawatts of power will
require over 126,000 individual turbines if the average turbine
generates 3Mw, 76,000 at an avg. 5Mw turbines. When you look at
the potential in these regards you can see the massive amount
of resources needed to achieve this task. Using the 58,000
pounds of steel used by 1.5Mw turbines, 76,000 5Mw (which would
use more steel than smaller 1.5Mw towers) the total for steel
alone is 4.4 billion pounds of steel. Depending on the alloy,
most high strength steel contains about 8
percent molybdenum. Using the 4.4 billion pounds of steel
needed, over 352 million pounds of molybdenum would be
Currently, the five largest wind turbine manufacturers
are as listed in terms of market share, in 2009 according to
BTM Consultants
The largest wind turbine currently in production is the
E-126. With a generating capacity of over 7MW, this turbine has
the ability to generate massive amounts of power in the same
area as smaller turbines. Due to its size it is best suited for
off-shore wind generation.
, the world's largest manufacturer of wind turbines, is a
Danish firm. Their main North American Operation is based in
Portland, Oregon, with production facilities in Colorado, they
are suited to supply large amounts of wind turbines to the US
Rare earth metals are not the only metals involved in
the production of wind turbines. Massive amounts of high
strength steel are needed to build the towers. This steel will
contain molybdenum, manganese and vanadium in the alloy to
reduce oxidization, and increase strength. The massive demand
increases from large scale projects such as these will strain
supply chains of many metals needed to complete them. This will
undoubtedly raise the prices of these metals in a substantial
In the upcoming article, we will look at the investment
potential in solar, geothermal, as well as related industries
such as electric vehicles and energy storage systems vital for
efficient solar projects. The growth potential in the battery
industry alone because of the thousands of different
applications is immense.

CLEVELAND (AP) -- After completing a rare unassisted triple play a few weeks ago, the Cleveland Indians pulled off an even stranger feat with a triple steal.
The Indians accomplished the feat in an 8-2 victory over the Chicago White Sox on Tuesday night.
With the bases loaded and Ben Francisco batting, White Sox pitcher Ehren Wasserman faked a throw to third and threw to first, which caught Jamey Carroll off the bag. First baseman Paul Konerko got Carroll in a brief rundown. David Dellucci broke from third and Konerko's throw to catcher Toby Hall was in the dirt, allowing Dellucci to score. Dellucci, Carroll and Grady Sizemore, who was on second when the play began, were given stolen bases.
The odd play didn't result in good reviews from either team.
"Those are not plays we practice in spring training," Indians manager Eric Wedge said.
"It was crazy," White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen said. "We really did a lot wrong. You can name it and name it. It's a good thing it was one game."
The last triple steal came on Oct. 1, 1987, by Atlanta against Houston according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
The Indians already had a cushion at that point as Franklin Gutierrez hit a grand slam in the first inning to give Cleveland all the runs its would need. Gutierrez continues to thrive on Mark Buehrle.
"I know this guy," said Gutierrez, who hit a three-run homer off Buehrle on Opening Day and is batting .417 (5-for-12) with two homers and seven RBIs in his career against the left-hander. "I know what he can throw. I was relaxed and looking for a good pitch to hit."
While Gutierrez celebrated his first career grand slam, Buehrle, who fell to 2-6 and has lost six of his last seven decisions, had a different viewpoint of the results.
"I can't fall behind in the count in the first inning like that," he said. "I get two outs, with just one run across, and then I walk a guy, give up a hit, walk a guy, and then you saw what happened."
Buehrle allowed one run and two hits in seven innings against the Indians last week.
"Sometimes, this game stinks," he said. "It's frustrating. You give up two hits in one game, then can't get anybody out."
Buehrle allowed seven runs in five innings. He was pulled after back-to-back doubles by Jhonny Peralta and Ryan Garko in a bizarre sixth inning that featured the triple steal.
The last Indians player to steal home was Grady Sizemore on Aug. 26, 2005 in Toronto. That was a straight steal of home.
Carroll started the first rally with a one-out double, took third on a wild pitch and scored on Francisco's sacrifice fly. A walk to Victor Martinez, a single by Peralta and a walk to Garko loaded the bases.
The Indians' rare offensive outburst was enough for starter Aaron Laffey (3-3), who allowed two runs in five innings.
"When you get a big inning like that, you have to bear down a little more," Laffey said. "You can't relax at all. If you relax for a second, they'll jump all over you."
The White Sox, who had beaten the Indians five straight times, scored two in the third on Toby Hall's double and Orlando Cabrera's single.
The White Sox have won 10 of 13 while the Indians have lost nine of 11.
Gutierrez left the game with a left quad contusion after being hit by a pitch in the sixth.
Indians designated hitter Travis Hafner missed his second straight game because of a sore right shoulder. Manager Eric Wedge said Hafner could be headed for the disabled list.
Game notes
RHP Jake Westbrook, who has been on the DL since April 22 with a strained left intercostal, will start Wednesday's game against the White Sox. Wedge said RHP Jorge Julio will be designated for assignment. ... RHP Adam Miller, the Indians' top pitching prospect, will have his right middle finger examined to determine if surgery is necessary. Miller is on the disabled list at Triple-A Buffalo with an open callus on the finger. ... During the team's pregame stretch, White Sox RHP Octavio Dotel and director of donditioning Allen Thomas got into a shouting match and had to be separated by players. It's unclear what caused the disagreement ... INF Juan Uribe (strained right hamstring) was sent to Triple-A Charlotte for a rehab assignment.

Kelvinator Dryer ModelDET400K (electric)
My electric dryer is not heating. I have been told to check the coil, some ceramic transfer block and heating sensor. I have seen where they are at but cant get the tumbler off. I got the front panel off but dont know what else is holding it in place. Anyone know how to get it off.
Hi, you may be trying to get to the parts from the wrong side of the dryer. If you've taken off the front panel and the drum (tumbler?) is still in the way, then you may want to replace the front panel and approach the parts from the back.
I hope this helps some! Jim D/Heathsville, VA
To check the coil, the easiest thing to do is to use a volt-ohmmeter and check the coil's resistance. Low resistance is good - infinite resistance (an "open") is bad. (I have a ***** washer/dryer combo and most of the stuff you'd need to get to is accessible from the back.)
You should be able to see the ceramic block and I guess you're trying to see if it's broken. I think its only purpose is to serve as an insulator, but I don't know for sure. As far as the heating sensor goes, I guess you can use the vol-ohmmeter on it and see if it's stuck open (infinite resistance) by measuring across the terminals.
I hope this helps some! Jim D/Heathsville, VA

I live in this ghostown
The whispers from the walls fall like feathers to the ground
I walk upon these cemetary streets
And i don't speak the language of the skeletons that i meet
I live in this ghostown
The acid from the architecture is burning the place down
I wander through these solitary streets
They're empty as an afterthought in purple pools of gasoline
The river's all in flames
I can't go home again
This city speaks in rain
I live in this ghostown
The coffee burns like kerosene and the color of my world is brown
I look out on these melancholy streets
It's quiet as a photograph and lonley as my vanity
The river's all in flames
I can't go home again
This city's rearranged
I'm never going to leave this ghostown

I kind of like it, $120 doesn't seem bad.
Ya that is pretty good. I did not notice that but if you enter the code before check out the price ends up being $120. I could not stand it and ordered one. For that price you can't go wrong.
Thanks for the heads up. Nothing better than a new knife to start the New Year.....
Thanks for the heads up, but going to pass on this one big time, the Spyderco Bushcraft if far FAR sexier.
I can't write it off entirely without getting my hands on one, but what I'm seeing elicits an overwhelming..."meh." Thick stock with a conventional saber grind, super boxy looking scales (especially at the butt) and why the heck did they use titanium tubing for the handle fasteners? Since it's not competing in the ounce-shaving department all that does is raise the cost--Ti tubing is made crazy expensive. It's also about 5 years late.
Just my opinion, though. I fully commend anyone who likes it. It's just really not for me at all.
Always been a Benchmade fan and this is one really slick looking blade.
Dang, that thing is sexy! I honestly expected it to be more in the $350 range. Hmmm....

Benchmade is a company I respect greatly--they even make all their own hardware, and they back up their product.
But....$200? Madness! Even $100 is in the high range for me...I wouldn't want to take it out and dirty it up.
I really like the knife but, its out of my price range for now. But i might pick one up down the road.

Sahar Somekian is poised to graduate from the University of Maryland. Rather than start a new job and live on her own, she is instead, moving back home.
"I am not excited for it...at all," she said.
Xyan Rose is also days away from getting his degree in biology and heading to live with his dad.
They're called the boomerang generation.
A 15-percent unemployment rate for people ages 20 to 24 is forcing a higher number than ever of college graduates to move back under mom and dad's roof.
We've seen in Census data that the share of that age group that are living in multi-generational housing increase dramatically during the recession years and it's even continued to increase during the recovery period.
A majority of the class of 2012 will move back home after graduationthat's a near 20 percent increase from six years ago.
Sahar is nearly a straight-A student, but still can't find a jobso, she has nowhere else to go.
"As much as I love my family, it's just not where I want to be. I want to be on my own...I want to be doing my own thing at this point," she said.
Single parent Bettina Suber is readying her son's teenage room for his arrival this weekend. She's disappointed her son can't find a job and is moving home.
"It's going to be an adjustment for him as far as he used to probably staying out if he want to...hanging out with some friends and for me. I'll move back into the parent mode of...is he ok...it's 11 o'clock...12 o'clock at night," Suber said.
High college loan debt is also forcing even those with jobs to move back in with their parents.
It's a reality the class of 2012 is trying to live with.
Unlike past generations there is no longer a stigma attached to moving back home. Many graduates plan to be there for six to 12 months, with the hope that the economy will continue to improve and they will be able to find a job and move out on their own.

Banging the wolf bell loudly
On this Memorial Day, consider some of the memorable actions of our government last week:
-It issued vague warnings of possible attacks on national monuments, causing alerts across the nation.
-FBI Director Robert Mueller stated that more terrorist attacks on America were "inevitable."
-Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld went one better by stating that a nuclear or biological attack on America was "inevitable."
-President Bush warned of a terrorist threat, "to civilization itself."
-The administration said it opposed a special investigation into what was known prior to Sept. 11.
-The State Department issued a report on terrorism that included Cuba on a list of "terrorist" nations.
Why all this last week? Why did the administration pick one particular week in May to bang the wolf bell?
Rumsfeld's remark that a nuclear or biological attack was inevitable was the first time such a thing had ever been said publicly by a high official of any nation.
The idea of the inevitability of nuclear attack is absurd. It is Armageddon-babble that deserves to be refuted directly. Somebody must have told Rumsfeld it was absurd, for the next day he tried to play down his remarks as routine.
Routine, no. Irresponsible, yes.
The administration's heightened state of paranoia coincided precisely with revelations of FBI memos written prior to Sept. 11 connecting Middle East aliens to flight schools and to Osama bin Laden.
Instead of a reasoned response to those revelations and a decision to cooperate with Congress in investigation of the circumstances, the administration went into bunker mode.
Vice President Dick Cheney spoke of "incendiary" insinuations, and an angry Bush criticized political "second-guessing." Cheney made it clear the administration would oppose showing the FBI memos to Congress and would oppose an independent investigation of pre-Sept. 11 intelligence.
Such defensiveness is as unwarranted as Rumsfeld's warnings of nuclear inevitability. National catastrophes have always warranted investigations, including Pearl Harbor, the Kennedy assassination, Vietnam and the Challenger explosion.
No one is accusing the administration of anything. Politicizing Sept. 11, by either party, would be the worst kind of misjudgment. That's why the calls for an independent investigation have been bipartisan.
Up to now, Bush has gotten a free ride for the war on terrorism. Americans have basically said, do what you have to do. But with signs that the administration is putting self-interest above the public interest, things are changing. The nation's checks and balances are coming into play, starting with the press and the Congress.
The self-interest in Bush's energy policy, which is already under investigation in Congress, is showing itself now in foreign policy. Start with Cuba. The State Department's annual list of terrorist nations has always been politicized, but including Cuba on it this year is risible, especially when the charge is so obviously connected to Florida politics.
No one disputes that terrorism exists, but every nation that has a disagreement with America is not a terrorist nation.
Let's be concerned with terrorism, not obsessed with it. Despite the Bush alarmism, the world is a safer place today than it was during World War II or the Cold War. We do not face invasion or extinction. On Memorial Day above all, let's not forget that.
Rumsfeld's statement on nuclear inevitability just happens to fit nicely with Bush's plans to build a $350 billion missile defense system.
The problem is that the two ideas don't match. Even if terrorists got their hands on nuclear or biological material, which Rumsfeld also says is inevitable, why would they use a traceable missile to deliver it when they could use a car or a suitcase?
Spending $350 billion will not protect us against suitcases.
