Document CMPC 2004-002219 has many letters that discuss the order of Saddam Hussein to use Chemical Weapons in Northern Iraq against who they call agents of Iran, and they are mainly Kurds followers of Massoud Al Barazani, Saddam regime call them “The Destroyers”, but of course many civilian died in these Chemical attacks because Chemical weapons deadly effects spread much larger than the area where it hit. Page 1 is a letter dated April/8/1987 talks about the final decision to hit the Kurds with Special Ammunition (Chemical Weapons). Then page 4 and 5 are from a letter dated a week earlier March /31/1987 were the Saddam Intelligence are discussing the way to conduct the strike with Chemical Weapons and in this letter they were very clear about the meaning of Special Ammunition where they identified it as MUSTARD AGENT where it is called in letter as “AA’MEL AL KHARDAL” where AA”MEL =AGENT (chemical agent that is), and “AL KHARDAL” = MUSTARD, and this letter mentions another chemical agent called in Arabic as “ AA”MEL AL ZAYEN” i.e. “ AL ZAYEN AGENT”, I need to find out what is the meaning of “AL ZAYEN” may be it is nerve agent or blistering agent, it an Arabic chemical word that I need to find out what it means..

Salman Pak is the location of the Boeing Airplane, suspected of use in training airline hijackers.....would show possible ties to 9/11.
Absolutely, and according to Bush Haters, Saddam and Sons should have been trusted never to use them again.
Well said!
Can anyone clarify for me....this document is regarding wmds from 1987. Is it disputed by the left that Saddam had the wmds at that time?
I see from the other long thread that you have done the translation,,,....thank you so much.....not what I was hoping it might say however.
>>>Can anyone clarify for me....this document is regarding wmds from 1987. Is it disputed by the left that Saddam had the wmds at that time?
I don't think that anyone disputes the fact that Saddam had and used chemical weapons in the 80s. The dispute is whether he was manufacturing or had control of any weapons after the UN moved in to monitor and dismantle sites after Gulf War I.

The Kurdish communist party did inform the Norwegian authorities about the existence of inside the Norwegian territories called (Malakrikar) from the residents of Irbil and in charge of the Al Qaeda organizations there and upon the attempt of the Norwegian authorities to arrest him he fled to China with his family.
3. In the date of 15/8/2002 and common meeting was held between the two Communist Iraqi and Kurdish parties.. and this to unify their political position in regards to the international situation and the Iraqi dossier.
End of translation.
The “confident” is the agent source that the Iraqi intelligence is using and his is identified only by his number 1253.
So Iraq wasn't a Communist Utopia before the war?? Michael Mooron said that Saddamn was a loving leader who never hurt his people. Who ya going to believe?
Great Find, keep up the amazing work.

It wasn't then...and it wasn't in 2000, but at least around here (geographically), it is common for leftists I talk to to be unaware that Sadaam *ever* provably had chemical weapons aside from maybe some prototypes. They've bought the line "there never were any WMDs".
They are also unaware that the U.N. inspectors actually put their hands on WMDs, took samples of the contents, tagged and inventoried large quantities.
Most people really into it will remember, but ignore it. Many casual followers have had their memory over-written by the mantra.

The big countries don’t want any country but themselves; the club that monopolized the advanced technologies and the advanced weapon don’t want other country to have it. This is the truth, at the end they don’t sympathize with us when we want to make Chemical or Biological weapon. The presence of a resolution means there is a system, and his position is just like the Westerners.
In the Chemical Weapon Protocol, Shevardnadze, was still Soviet Union, I told him “Brother Shevardnadze, here is Israel they have Nuclear Weapon, and you are running after me for the Chemical, OK don’t you believe in balancing?” he said “I do believe in balancing, but we have to get rid of the Chemical weapons” keep it by you, and surely if he wants to wipe it out, it is not expected from him to let Iraq have weapons. But Iraq can keep them!
Here is yet another admission that they used them on Iran back in the Iran/Iraq war. Something they were not admitting publicly. There is also admission that they were not being truthful to the UN during the 90's.

Let me talk in details, the 17 Tons you didn’t answer him a satisfactory answer. Which is related to the previous programs, this doesn’t mean that these 17 Tons are maybe hidden! I don’t think so. Then what is preventing you and comrade Tariq before you came, he said we for sure produced Biological, means Biological weapons. So he is really looking in the previous programs. I am telling you, that not all your answers to Ekeus about the Chemical are correct and precise. You gave him numbers to satisfy him, and it seems until now he is satisfied with the total. But at the same time I know that America is looking to prove our use of chemicals against Iran! And we in fact did use Chemical on the Iranians. And we didn’t answer them that we used Chemical on the Iranians. So in all your programs that you present in Chemical there still will be a gap, and whenever he wants to raise it he can raise it with what’s called Leveling, the one you talked about. Between the imported data and the weapons produced and the destroyed, there is going to be a gap a number of weapons used in Iran you guys didn’t cover.
Send a note to the Powerline blog giving them this thread URL and this post #27.
Near the end of the briefing, a question was asked about the documents. DoD runs about a week late in getting transcripts posted, but here's a link to the video of the presser.
One thing that jumped out was the Admiral's response... in essence... "We were surprised at some of the things we found. There will be surprises."
This comment was at the tail end of the presser.
Select the "DoD Brief" window.
Thanks. Our hope is to find more and more documents and get the truth out.

Huh? And who is that Saddam? Dragging ole Al-la into all this makes it morally legal to gas entire cities and towns and murder thousands I guess.
More Saddam Documents ping
There was earlier discussion regarding the aircraft at Salman Pak and some suggested that it is in fact a Russian Tu-154.

Thanks for your great work.
NONE. OF. THIS. MATTERS.
These documents have come out way way too late to change public opinion and conventional wisdom. Nothing less than finding a polaroid of Saddam and Osama high-fiving in front of an A Bomb will do anything to change what MSM wants to say. They will just say Saddam was lying or bluffing his intentions.
Thanks for the link.
I can't get one of the web pages open ( 70.169.163.24 ) and when I try to open the docs on the other page http://fmso.leavenworth.army.mil/products-docex.htm#iraq, in English or Arabic, it either can't find the doc, or else gives me a message that the link is broken.
I wonder if they're updating. I hope they aren't pulling them down (just a little government paranoia)
