You're very brave to post this. Soon, there will be at least a dozen posters who will complain that you are personally jumping the gun on a bonifide WMD find. Of course, all you did was post a news article with that claim.

Then there will be the posters who will post another article claiming that this has been proven to be pesticides...or has already been seen by UN Inspectors and declared "safe," or a naturally skeptical-sounding comment by an official (whom ever that may be) will be quoted by another news article to negate the whole thing, ad naseum.

The resulting disclaimer articles that seem to appear almost instantaneously after a "new" find all deal with about a half dozen sites that have not all been throughly inspected or analyzed carefully. No official confirmation one way or the other has been given to any of the sites by the authorities--whom ever they may be.

These so-called WMD scoops are very confusing. Time will tell if this is credible. Unfortunately, the time it takes to inspect, test and verify does not come as swiftly as some would like it.

Sigh.
