There has been an IED used in Iraq since the fall of Saddam that was a binary sarin 155 mm artillery shell. It was something Saddam had never admitted they had. As you say, because it wasn't spinning it didn't mix effectively so had very little effect.

There's a lot more to Iraqi WMD than has been discussed by the dinosaur media. The Libyan nuclear program was staffed almost exclusively by Iraqi scientists. Was it really Saddam's program being run outside of the view of any inspectors? There were a half dozen dual use chemical factories discovered in the opening thrust of our forces into Iraq in the run to Baghdad (reported by the NY Times Judity Miller) that could produce in one day of production enough chemical weapons to wipe out the planet several times over. And contrary to the terms of the truce following the first Gulf War they weren't declared and weren't being inspected by the UN. And they were camoflagued and guarded by the Iraqi military. That right there is enough to have legally attacked Iraq, whether they ever produced anything in them or not.

And the chief of the Iraqi air force wrote a book detailing how he arranged to move WMD from Iraq through Syria to the Bekaa valley as "humanitarian assistance" after a big earthquake.

If the full story of all of this comes out the old media and their Stalinist Allies in the Dhimmicrat party and old Europe will be forever branded as the traitors they are. That's part of why they are so desperate to sieze control of all of the forms of communication with their ever increasing draconian laws regarding political speech. The "fairness doctrine" is their next attempt to muzzle any voice of opposition. CFR was their most successful foray in this regard. I can never forgive John McLame for pushing that through and I fault Bush for signing it in the belief that the Supreme Court would strike it down. To me that is Bush's biggest mistake, not anything he has done in Iraq.
