Appears we now make the distinction between chemical weapons and WMD. Sarin is a chemical weapon.

I don't think there is a distinction:

WMD =

Chemical - Sarin

Biological - Smallpox

Nuclear - Obvious

All WMD's. Of course this won't stop the MSM from avoiding it...

WMD is the current name for what used to be called NBC.

Nuclear, Biological, Chemical.

Of course! How silly of me. Guess I should listen more often to Peter Jennings. < /sarcasm off>
