This is not a real source as this is just a blog. It says U.S. army across the top but then at the end it says:

They don't even have balls enough to actually take credit for the article! Not to mention the fact that Psyc-ops(U.S. Army) has admitted to making up what they call 'positive news'.
I researched this before I opened my mouth and no where else, in the media, is there a story about these belts being found during our invasion, that I can find. Don't try and use this bull as your 'proof'. Find a real source.
I don't doubt the possibility of the various terror groups going to Iraq as soon as we announced to the world our intention to go in there, but let's get this straight, there was no solid evidence of terrorist ties with Iraq before we went in. We went in there and ruined that place for who knows how long and we were wrong. We could have been honest about the 'possible future threat' and then gone in there with conventional weapons and it would have taken longer but we still could have got the job that needed to be done, done. If we had not been greedy and in a hurry to secure all the oil and resources, I would have no problem with the decision to go in there. What part about we shot tons and tons of dirty bombs don't you get? The use of these weapons and the way we have actually conducted ourselves over there, going from one lame reason to the next, is the work of real genius. Our own boys are getting sick.
There is a line we manage to draw on what a war crime is unless we are the ones being scrutinized. Then people like you claim we had a right. What a crock of self-serving bullshit.
Why does that not surprise me. I really don't care whether you accept it or not. I am well aware liberals always discount sources when they lose arguments so this is no surprise. You have an agenda and will not let the facts stand in the way. I am not a liar. I saw it during the invasion. Now you can disprove it with facts or another article instead of just saying you don't accept the source. I stand by it. You disprove it and I will never show up here again. Go for it.
