Oh, this will be picked up by the press. Parts of it anyway.

It contains a tasty morsel of bullschnit which is all too often found in AFP articles, and this morsel is the poison seed which is designed to be gobbled up with the spoonful of honey that makes up the rest of the article:

Experts say Iraq used a concoction of substances including concentrated tear gas, mustard gas and the nerve agent VX, shipped by the United States, France and Britain which backed Saddam in his eight-year war with Iran.

Iraq manufactured its own chemical weapons. It didn't get ready-made chemical weapons from the US or UK and it's doubtful there would be a need to procure what they could easily make themselves from France, either.
