The recent release by WikiLeaks of classified Pentagon documents reveals that U.S. military intelligence discovered chemical weapons labs, encountered insurgents who were specialists in the creation of toxins, and uncovered weapons of mass destruction.
The latest WikiLeaks document dump reveals that as late as 2008, American troops continued to find WMD in the region.
There are numerous mentions of chemical and biological weapons in the WikiLeaks documents, however the U.S. media appear only interested in those portions of the leaked material that highlight actions that are viewed as embarrassing for the U.S. military such as the accusation that U.S. commanders were aware of abuse and "torture" of prisoners by Iraqi soldiers and police officers.
The U.S. Defense Department continues to demand that WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange immediately return the stolen military documents in his possession, including recent documents that created another stir when published, according to Elaine Wilson of American Forces Press Service.

someone needs to mail drudge this tip...
My son, while in Iraq during 2006-2007, made a comment to me regarding something that his unit had found while out on patrol. He stated that he couldn’t give any details, but that it was very very big.
I was in iraq during this time as well..
Well, well, well. SOME of us didn’t have to wait for Wikicreep to post his “info” to know this. Glad THIS is out there for all to see. Now, if the MSM had been DOING ITS JOB...EVERYONE would have KNOWN this.
You don’t say.
Maybe GWB and DC are not so evil after all.
HE GASSED THE KURDS! WE KNEW HE HAD WMD IN 1988!
Off my soapbox now.
They hid it and shipped most to Bekka Valley.
Old news. Unless you only read wikileaks.
i would like to know why dubya would let the “bush lied, people died” bleating to continue on and on!!
The man who facilitated the transfer of the technology, and the actual materials, was Donald Rumsfeld.
Since when has the truth ever mattered to liberals? They’ll ignore anything that doesn’t make Bush and Cheney out to be boogie men.
fast==fact
Evidence for your accusation????
Well! I fully expect THIS to be the lead story in the NY Slimes tomorrow morning!
Because I think the story is much bigger than we know even today...
I think it had to do with getting France, Germany and others on board for the invasion. Also along with Russia to keep their name out of it.Can you imagine what would have come to pass if the WMD’s had made in France, Germany or Russia inscribed on them, especialy after GWB said you are either with us or against us? Thats why we waited long enough for them to be transported out of the country before we went in.
This confirms what has been talked about since 2003. I wonder if nuclear materials were also trucked or flown out and if Syria is now benefiting from them?
LOL
Seriously?
Pretty common knowledge.
Then it should be most common to present the evidence that Donald Rumsfeld is responsible for Saddam's WMD's now would it NOT???
