LiveLeak has video at "insurgents" loading chemical rockets and firing at US troops!
See it at http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=f233f86ee3
Slug reads "Insurgents fire chemical rockets at US base in Samarra. Filmed in Samarra the rockets were stated to have been targetted on US FOB McKenzie by Salahaldin Al-Ayoubi Brigades."
You can actually see them loading a thick dark liquid into the rockets. They are wearing their idea of chemical gear as they do.
This is a tremendous escalation and a violation of all Rules of Warfare... and no media, other than FR has reported it!!!!!!

TANKS,,,MSM Zap...;0)
that's right, that was my thread reporting from someone in Iraq about chemical weapons being used and hundreds of people getting sick, and also how those weapons were confirmed on site to be 2 different substances.
Haven't heard any updates yet.
Absolutely.
I actually saw 55 gallon barrels of dimethyl sulfate in a bunker with chlorine cannisters, NBC equipment, and a (104?) mortar tube. I've also been inside an old Iraqi training facility (Habaniyah) where the discarded material clearly showed they trained for offensive checmical weapon deployment.
None of their masks or accessories were as good as even what we used back in the 70's.
