"What kind of chemicals were involved....(I forgot)"
Cyanide, I believe, was mentioned at the time in official communiques. Did not make much sense in connection with the large number of projected victims, for hydrocyanic acid quickly disperses, and moreover, most of it gets incinerated in the explosion of chemical munitions [as the frogs found during WWI]. The numbers were requiring nerve gases, but the official communique was "cyanide".

Interesting. Might do some Lexus Nexus mining after a bit and will let you know if I find anything. Thanks for the info.
