When the 101st was on their way to Baghdad, they uncovered, litterally, drums of nerve toxins buried in a yard. Some of the troops were showing symptoms of exposure. The news later was that the chemicals were only insecticide for agricultural use.

I remember reading about soldiers sick from exposure but I don't remember reading that the insecticides were buried.

What exactly are you claiming? That the US government is covering up evidence of Iraqi chemical weapons? That they have proof of dual-use chemical weapons but decided not to highlight this fact?

Not claiming anything, not proposing theories, just reporting. I was particularly interested in this incident since it looked like some of my son's battalion were involved.
