Coalition troops are also said to be holding the general in charge of the facility.

I can already hear the spin from Blix and the U.N. Something to the effect of "this is something that we would have found eventually had the U.S. not acted unilaterally and allowed the inspection to run their course." BARF!!!

Hey, France! The jig is up! M. Chirac, call your office!
I'd like to be a fly on the wall in Chirac's emergency staff meetings that he is going to be having every day for the foreseeable future. This guy is going to be busier than a one-legged man in an ass kicking contest in the next few days trying to cover his own ass. You reap what you sow, Chirac (and this goes for every other liberal Marxist creep)!!

Hollywood said he doesn't have any wmd. And the story breaks right in the middle of the Oscars. Sweet.

The fact that the Jeruselum Post is reporting this is
going to be bad! Should have been anyone else

Here is what I don't understand. Why in heck don't we bomb their stupid TV Station and start beaming the truth on every TV set. This radio free America crap is not convincing enough.
To: SolitaryMan
Will this find make it more likely that Iraq will use WMD?

It's interesting that Fox gets the inside story from the administration. I'm still waiting to see it played up on NBC and CNN.

channel 11 Chicago...just starting, chemical link Iraq/ Al Qaeda....must see.
To: PianoMan
FWIW, Brett on FNC said in his report that the General admitted that it was a chemical weapons plant. He's now in custody...
To: PianoMan
Do you think it's an aspirin factory? -- surrounded by barbed wire, run by a General? Calling Hans Blix, calling Hans Blix -- nothing to see here, move along, move along.

'Huge' Chemical Weapons Plant Found in IraqI thought the Iraqi's said they didn't have any chemical weapons. Were they lying?

The Frogs did not say they would join the coalition if WMD were found, they said they would join if they were USED.

Wait till we see the "made in France" labels -- and it ain't fine wine.

And also leaving the impression that there was no other reason for the war.

The frogs didn't even say that... They said they would assist medically and with hazmat teams if chemicals were found. That was from a later clarification, where they stated that even if WMD's were found, they weren't joining the coalition with military force period.
To: SolitaryMan
ABC news update on the radio just broke into a local talk show to report the chemical find, and the story is also now on their home page.
