“Chemicals” were also among an “arsenal” reportedly discovered by police in a flat in Molenbeek outside Brussels, from where the Paris strikes are thought to have been planned and prepared.
Eau de Paris, the capital’s state-run water company, has banned access to six sensitive sites to all but key personnel....

Chemical weapons in Syria or Iraq, no way. We have been fed that line of BS since 2003.
IMO, they went somewhere.
