WE (the US) taught and trained them how to make and use chemical weapons back when they were at war with Iran.

No. We. Did. Not.

Where did this knowledge of yours come from? Did you read this on DU? It's not true. I was serving in the Defense Intelligence Agency during the Iran/Iraq war. Read my profile. We never did support Saddam in any way. The reason Saddam used French and Soviet weaponry is BECAUSE we would not sell him our stuff, nor play war games with him, as he was a ruthless bastard. Now, we weren't unhappy to see him take on the ruthless bastards of Tehran, but we never took his side in anything.

Let's see...assuming each projectile is equivalent to a 155-mm GB (Sarin) round uploaded with 6.5 pounds of GB, that would be approximately 1477 kg (1.6 tons) of GB Agent. The LD50 for Sarin is about 100 mg percutaneous per 70 kg man, for a total of 14,770,000 lethal doses to the skin, at 50% fatality. That's more than enough Sarin to kill 7,385,000 people, or the population of Los Angeles, Chicago AND Houston.

The liberals don't care about WMD one way or another, they just enjoy being able to say "Bush lied" etc. No amount of proof will alter their position - it is now as much an article of faith of the leftwing creed as abortion and "tax cuts are only for the rich".

Really??
Anybody tell that to the 5,000 dead Kurds? The families of the 100,000 Iranian Dead? The 78,000 LIVING Iranian Gas casualties?

At a minimum it's political news.
Alright, I'll buy that.
I just don't think it is major that we found what we knew they had.
If and when they find something new, like nuclear material, etc. That would be major news.

I just don't want to look us to look silly when we don't have to. Just MHO though, fell free to disagree.

Cordially,
GE

Drudge is yesterday. FR is what is happening

But Drudge reaches a lot of people that FR doesn't. It's a symbiotic relationship.

However, English is spoken the world over.
Point well taken, however, it is interesting that we also supplied them with chemical weapons and the technology to make it back when they were fighting with Iran. Then we find it in English. Interesting?

Who's your enemy here? I'm listing the crap we'll hear from the Dims and the MSM about this!

ONE shell of Sarin is enought to kill thousands. But, we won't hear about that.

Could be. I thought all the chemical weapons were destroyed. Hans Brix said so.

neither can I, but as you know, no amount of evidence will convince people otherwise. Even if we find 1000s of WMDs the left will say: "Reagan gave them to Iraq"

This level of skepticism would have never existed were it not for the Administration, the Military, or whoever sitting on this information.

Absolutely. If they buried such sensitive equipment as jets, they buried other large stuff. The smaller stuff they put on truck convoy or flew out of country.

I thought that maybe he didn't have WMD's, but thought he did. This nutcase put people into wood-chippers, do you want to be the one to tell him that you can't figure out to make a nuke? I've always wondered if Saddam was really surprised that he wasn't able to launch some type of catastrophic attack on us when we attacked.
