Y’know those missing explosives that were videotaped by embedded reporters? Well, the station has an update now that shows that they were locked under an IAEA seal (via Kos) :

A 5 Eyewitness News crew in Iraq may have been just a door away from materials that could be used to detonate nuclear weapons. The evidence is in videotape shot by Reporter Dean Staley and Photographer Joe Caffrey at or near the Al Qaqaa munitions facility.

The video shows a cable locking a door shut. That cable is connected by a copper colored seal.

A spokesperson for the International Atomic Energy Agency told 5 Eyewitness News that seal appears to be one used by their inspectors. “In Iraq they were used when there was a concern that this could have a, what we call, dual use purpose, that there could be a nuclear weapons application.”

Weapons have fallen into the hands of terrorists due to the incompetence of the Bush Administration. Rather than admit it, they’ve got a different excuse every day.
