What Jim Said

Damn that drudge. He's always so quick to pull the trigger instead of waiting for the story to develop. From Josh:
Now, NBC's Jim Miklaszewski just went on MSNBC with this follow-up (emphasis added) ...
Following up on that story from last night, military officials tell NBC News that on April 10, 2003, when the Second Brigade of the 101st Airborne entered the Al QaQaa weapons facility, south of Baghdad, that those troops were actually on their way to Baghdad, that they were not actively involved in the search for any weapons, including the high explosives, HMX and RDX. The troops did observe stock piles of conventional weapons but no HMX or RDX. And because the Al Qaqaa facility is so huge, it's not clear that those troops from the 101st were actually anywhere near the bunkers that reportedly contained the HMX and RDX.
So I guess the NYT's story is now remantled?
