Interesting, but sadly not very relevant to the recent NYT report. (maybe you could explain why you posted it)
At any rate, I wonder what the follow up is on this report anyway? Was it verified that these nerve agents were found? Or was this yet another one of those "hyped" news stories that FoxNews was sadly guilty of, more than anyone else, during that time?
Actually, this is very relevant to the NYTimes scandal. This article is talking about the 3rd ID screwing around with vials of stuff at al Qa Qa a week BEFORE the NBC News guy got there with the 101st Airborne.
actually, it may be relevant.
The article is dated 4/4/2003.
It would appear that the incident had to happen prior to 4/4/03.
And it shows the US troops had secured something at Alqaqaa....prior to 4/10/03.
try here for a FOX reported AP's take on the incident.
