3-4 Liters of Sarin and the terrorists who put the explosive device together didn't know it was in there? Yeah, right.

Being a binary shell they didnt know it had to be fired from a cannon to make the two components mix.

I was surprised to hear NPR on the radio this am mention the shell with chemical weapons in it, but or course they didnt even mention is was rigged as an IED to blow up on US soldiers.
They implied it was just found laying around on the ground somewhere.

They probably didn't. These two solders, and many others might have been toast if it weren't sarin. Apparently bianery shells to don't mix properly when set off by an externaly booster.
