A trailer found by the U.S. in Northern Iraq last year likely was used by Saddam Hussein's regime as a mobile biological weapons laboratory, and not to fill hydrogen balloons as some in Britain and the U.S. have charged, a view supported by exclusive photos obtained by WorldNetDaily that for the first time offer inside views of the trailer components

I'm reasonably certain tht the photos show fermentation vessels and related gear. I have used such to grow non-military bugs containing mammalian genes. The stuff shown looks a lot like the (now) old-fashioned stuff I used in the '80s. Probably not of American (Brunswick) manufacture -- more like European (e.g., French)...

Humbug, it was strictly for filling up hydrogen weather balloons. Because as everyone knows, the weather in Iraq is so volatile that you need weather balloons all over the country just to keep track of it.

Cmon, it's clearly a machine used to make fertilizer used for growing all those crops out in the desert.

Maybe it's the poor fireworks vending truck set alight on Reno 911?

After all, we are told that Saddam's only interest was in selling firecrackers and bottle rockets. You know, kids' play stuff, right?

Why the heck has it taken 18 months to analyze these pictures. Our weapons inspectors after the war surely saw them. I remember seeing several of the pics within a couple of months after we took Baghdad.

I also remember the UN poo-pooing the idea that they were capable of producing bio-weapons agents.

No. You haven't seen a Willy Wonka chocolate factory on wheels before?

"Because as everyone knows, the weather in Iraq is so volatile that you need weather balloons all over the country just to keep track of it."

IIRC, the argument was that the Iraqi military used the balloons for AA target practice. Whether that is a good argument, I have no idea.

Ping trailer of death main-stream media chooses to ignore. In the same token won't stop talking about Zarqawi not having an i.d. card that says "I'm part of the Osama fan club".

It was obvious back when these were first found that they were some kind of a complicated process that required pressure and temperature control. Clearly they were not for the production of hydrogen. That story was BS from the git-go.
