The Still Unsolved Stoffel Affair: How Is Known – but Not Who or Why

May 10, 2005 12:53 PM

The Still Unsolved Stoffel Affair: How Is Known – but Not Who or Why Iraqi guerrillas calling themselves Rafidan – the Political Committee of the Mujahideen Central Command – have recently woken up and begun releasing a series of communiqués claiming to shed new light on the still unsolved deaths on December 8, 2004, of two Americans, Dale C. Stoffel, 43, whom they describe as “a CIA shadow manager in Iraq, close friend of George Bush,” and his associate Joseph J. Wemple, also 43.

Also they don't know their weapons. That's an MP5-K the guy's holding, not a so-called "Micro Uzi".

I love it! typical of some dudes: badmouth the source and not what is said. Debka, not always reliable, has in fact (it has been studied) a 2/3 rate of being on track...but much easier to dismiss a subject because you have in advance a dislike of the site. Tell me, then,why the murders and where is the missing money?

clevershark's right, though. And that was the first thing I noticed, as well: He's not holding a micro Uzi; he's holding an MP5.

After that, I sort of lost interest in the article.

it would be great if the us military would get to the bottom of some other mysterious deaths as well - not to mention the 24,000 plus iraqi civilians killed so far in the now forgotton (buried) snipe hunt for wmd.

culture of life - my a**.

A competing study revealed that 87.6% of statistics found on the Internet are complete B.S.
