In the same sites this man has reported?
Whoops, forgot to close the tag. If only there was a preview button...
China, France and Russia are all under the table, and they aren't giving us the treatment Bill got from Monica.

Q Mr. Secretary, there's been a lot made on Capitol Hill about the chemical weapons that were found and may be quite old. But do you have a real concern of these weapons from Saddam's past perhaps having an impact on U.S. troops who are on the ground in Iraq right now?
SEC. RUMSFELD: Certainly. What's been announced is accurate, that there have been hundreds of canisters or weapons of various types found that either currently have sarin in them or had sarin in them. And sarin's dangerous. And it's dangerous to our forces and it's a concern. So, obviously, to the extent we can locate these and destroy them, it's important that we do so. They are dangerous. And anyone, I'm sure, General Casey or anyone else in that country, would be concerned if they got in the wrong hands. They are weapons of mass destruction. They're harmful to human beings. And they have been found. And they had not been reported by Saddam Hussein as he inaccurately alleged that he had reported all of his weapons. And they are still being found and discovered.
Not only possible, but true. Send me $29.95 and I'll mail you a video that chronicles the WMD under Saddam and if you order today you get a free coffee mug.

Teams are still diffusing mustard rounds from WWI. I think its safe to say that any mustard gas that Saddam stored away would still be potent.
I didn't see anything in there that says the sarin was in binary form. Sure, it's still dangerous to handle, but has any of it been useful since the Iraq/Iran war? Nothing I've read suggests that it was.
What's horrible about his site? Looked fine to me.
He may well be very correct on this one, but in my humble opinion and after readign thousands of pages of Iraq documents, I believe that Iraq WMD or Precursors to make WMD are buried in the Anbar Province in the Western Desert.

"Offering the official administration response to FOX News, a senior Defense Department official pointed out that the chemical weapons were not in useable conditions."
I found this link in trying to possibly give jveritas some "ammo" to debunk the libs using the "The stuff they found is TOO old to be any good" arguement. If THAT "too old" arguement goes "unchalleged" as "truth", IMHO, the libs will try to use it again should our US Armed Forces find a really LARGE quantity.

There might be better and more informative links with a little more digging, I found this fairly quickly.
