'Proof' of biological weapons found

I'll get flamed for this, but . . .

The Iraqi Info dweeb has a point. There mere presence of Chemical Suits / Gas Masks, etc... is pretty flimsy "proof" that Iraq has / intends to use Chem weapons! I think they DO have them and DO intend to use them, but, calling protective gear "proof" of biological weapons is a BIG stretch.

That's only part of it. They also have huge stocks of atropine, which has to be announced to UNMOVIC, which it was not. There's also the reports about Iraqis in full chem suits moving large chem barrels and "other items".

It's not just the chemical protection suits which were found, though... it's what was with some of the stashes of suits they found.

Chembio shells don't look like regular explosive shells, and they were found in the vicinity of such clothing and masks. There were reports that Marines also captured a chemical weapons specialist. funny how so many sources only focus on the suits.

I thought he was saying that we were the ones that might use bio stuff.

Agreed.

I just hope real proof doesn't cost lives.
