What a missed opportunity! They evacuated the building, hell all they had to do was padlock the doors and it would have been taken care of.
If they wanted to continue to have UN meetings they could find a new building in a new country.
No kidding! I have never trusted UNMOVIC, the IAEA, the UN or the media....LOL!
“Youre right, it was found at a chemical plant in 1996 and the spin factor is in full gear.”
thats how klinton knew Sadman had them
Check out this CNN article on the subject and the sentence they end the article with:
“They will be taken to a U.S. facility in Maryland where previous chemical samples from Iraq’s weapons inspections were destroyed,”
Previous WMDs? Found?

Unfreakinbelievable! This administration needs to fight back and fight back hard.
LOL the irony of it.
They’ve had wmd in their own god damn building all this time and not known about it.
LOL!! Good One!
“This administration needs to fight back and fight back hard.”
Don’t hold your breath....lol
LOL.
You can get the same thing mixing Comet and liquid dish soap.
made me laugh out loud, thanks.
BTW, phosgene is a choking agent, not a nerve agent.
Here is a good link for info on Phosgene.

Federation of American Scientists.
“...MECHANISM OF TOXICITY
Phosgene is only slightly soluble in water and aqueous solutions. However, once dissolved it rapidly hydrolyzes to form carbon dioxide and hydrochloric acid. The early-onset ocular, nasal, and central airway irritation from high concentrations of phosgene is caused by hydrochloric acid released during phosgene hydrolysis; however, the carbonyl group (C=O) readily participates in acylation reactions with amino (-NH2), hydroxyl (-OH), or sulfhydryl (-SH) groups and these reactions account for the major pathophysiological effects of phosgene. These acylations occur at alveolar- capillary membranes and lead to leakage of fluid from those capillaries into the interstitial portions of the lung. This effect is from direct contact of phosgene with these membranes; phosgene exposure by other routes, e.g., by intravenous administration, does not cause this damage.
Phosgene-induced leakage of fluid from capillaries into the pulmonary interstitium is normally opposed by lymphatic drainage from the parenchyma, but as the fluid leakage increases, normal drainage mechanisms become progressively overwhelmed. After a 20 minute to 24-hour long asymptomatic or latent period, fluid eventually reaches alveoli and peripheral airways, leading to increasingly severe dyspnea and clinically evident pulmonary edema.”
