Some Marines were testing the river water's purity before allowing the Iraqis to drink it. The reports I read said the amounts cyanide and mustard they detected were "off the scale." I don't know how much that is, but it appears to be more than naturally occuring trace amounts.

I think they found enought so you would not drink the water.

Mustard gas common. I don't think so It is a man made substance. Neither cyanide nor mustard gas occurs naturally in nature. Man has to produce the stuff.

Sarin is a different story. It comes from the castor bean and can be produced in your kitchen. Also it will occur in nature without mans help.
