"Since May 2004, ISG has recovered a total of 53 chemical weapons from various sources and military units throughout Iraq. A preliminary assessment indicates they are part of Iraq's pre-1991 stockpile. Variations in size, type, and agent fill raise the possibility that other, similar rounds remain at large." - Comprehensive Report of the Special Advisor to the DCI on Iraq's WMD, Volume 3, page 30. Including in Khamisiyah forty-one 122-mm sarin/cyclosarin SAKR=18 rockets!!!!!!!! 4-Jun, 25-Jun, 29 July 2004
"ISG has recovered a total of 53 chemical weapons from various sources and military units throughout Iraq."
The libs call them "strays", you know, like puppies. Repubs won't talk about them at all.
Suspicious timing.
/sarc
Of course, there is no mention at all of the 800 litres of Sarin that was almost released in an attack in Syria. Saddam is the only one who produced the stuff in the ME, and suddenly it appears in Syria, where it is suspected, that because the UN gave saddam plenty of time before the war to truck the stuff out of Iraq, That this stuff still is.
Yes, but those don't count, because Kerry says so.
Looks like the MSM got it wrong again!
Semper Fi
~ Every time anything turns up in Iraq, the libs cry, "yeah, but these are pre Gulf War," as if that makes it o.k. ~
Details, Details.....they forgot where they buried them that's why they couldn't destroy them. (grin)
i wonder if those who still claim that there were no WMDs would mind spending some time in a room full of these 53 chemicals. They'd surely findout how harmless these are!
Because he knew Kerry would sic the French on him
Well....it depends on how they were stored. But the fact remains that there were chemical weapons stockpiled in Iraq in contravention of the cease-fire agreement.
bump
Or how about storing this stuff in their own backyards or garages?
That's right this stuff was there PRE1991 and were supposed to be destroyed and weren't.....I just don't get why the CIA is out to gut Bush and Rummy..what's up with that
Like an Easter egg you hid for the kids but don't find until August.
bump!
Even into the 1970's there were places in france where if you walked in the right spot you would get blisters on your legs from WW1 mustard gas. Imagine what the 1970's technology Saddam was using was able to create.
Here is some info about the site...

It sure looks like those inspectors missed something... a while 41 of them...
"Daily I become more and more convinced that we aren't just eating ourselves in this country, but there is outside influence pushing the hate around."
Kerry and his goons are not only demoralizing the country, they are demoralizing the country while Iran, in some kind of demonic frenzy, races to build its first nuke. If we lose ourselves in a moral fog over Iraq, how will we deal with Iran? We might soon re-learn the meaning of imminence.
I thought about that caveat after I posted but really, if you store chemical weapons wrong ....you die. So My assumption would be that they would have been stored correctly.
Right, they're old and clearly don't count. I've got Fox on and I'd like to know why they're playing sound bites of his vile accusations over and over, and then only one by the President. I loathe Kerry. So now Brit is talking about Kerry on the attack. I hope Kerry's face melts from all the botox.
