The American authorities in Iraq were contacted by the freeper there. He asked that I post them here. I have done so. Simple as that. If you feel there is no value in the thread...the options are pretty straight forward. I'm saying that I cannot judge what's in those barrels, and nobody else reading this thread can. If you think that the military might read this thread, then I would suggest there may be more "straightforward" ways of getting this information to it.

Anyone who thinks the US government is leaving barrels around with obvious WMD and who posts that sentiment here is no friend of FR and no friend of GWB.

Put your think cap on. People who have experience in chemicals can read and judge what is in thos barrels. In the past 6 1/2 years, I have seen things like that happen countless times here on FR because of the literally thousands of people from all walks of life who post and lurk here. It's been posted on FR for just that purpose, with just that potential in mind.

The pics are genuine, from Iraq, this year. They are labeled as they were found.

You can believe it or not. That's up to you. I have posted them as a friend who has been stationed over there requested.
