The Syrians have had this stuff for years - and so has Sudan.

Go to: http://www.globalsecurity.org

On the upper part of the left margin,look for WMD.
Click that,go to the page that opens, and click "countries" (near the bottom)and a page of countries will open.Just click on the ones you want.

They're fairly neutral-even a bit on the disarmament side.

I think that's one of the reasons we are in Iraq in the first place, to provide a staging ground for attacking Syria. We're going to have to do it someday, might as well do it when we have the troops there.

Actually, the GlobalSecurity site says that, while they have an aggressive program to develop this stuff, they lack precursers for both BW and CW, and would need outside assistance to actually produce and deploy either. GlobalSecurity says they've obtained such assistance recently from France and Russia, two countries that also helped Iraq. I don't think the information on GlobalSecurity's web page regarding Syria is enough to make it unlikely that Syria's current use of this stuff, if that's what it was, was possible because they got materiel from Iraq.

The GS page on Sudan and CW (they apparently don't have BW) is even more supportive of the theory that the stuff came from Iraq: Sudan's entire program of WMD production is, according to GS, joint with Iraq, and Iraq hid stuff in Sudan in the early '90's to evade UN weapons inspections. Such a record of cooperation hardly disproves the theory that the weapons used recently came from Iraq.
