As of yet, chemical alarms are going off and many tests are being taken. I do not have much more detail. I am trying to find the symptoms involved and just what alarms are being set off.

Dammit! If President Bush knew there were such things in Iraq, he should have told us!

[GOP_1900AD]

More evidence that there were, and still are, WMD in Iraq.

[Redcloak]

Why couldn't they have had this little accident 2 weeks ago?!?

[armymarinemom]

I haven;t heard anything. Ping me if something further develops.

[HardStarboard]

Evidently we couldn't find Chem/Bio WMD in Iraq despite everyone looking for it....but we can blow the stuff up without even trying??

[tomnbeverly]

Still nothing in the MSM. If it is Sarin or VX the Pentagon already knows... They will have to give something to the media soonn.

[mystery-ak]

Where was this Race....in Baghdad?

[cgk]

Does everyone here suddenly live in an alternate universe where they've forgotten everything they've learned about the media/MSM since 9/11 (well, since the President became... the President)?

MSM Mantra: IF IT HELPS BUSH, BURY IT: However you can. Period.

If anyone thinks that our men/women in uniform blew up a weapons cache & found WMD, and the MSM will be cutting each other down to break the story first... you have a terrible memory.

Still think we DIDN'T find any WMD in Iraq?

Here is ONE story about WMD found in Iraq... and it was ANTHRAX:

In Dec 2003, UNMOVIC found a bunch of bombs (exact number unknown, up to poss. 1400) filled with anthrax. The strain of anthrax was the same strain Iraq previously said it weaponized, but also destroyed. So, this story was released not only after the discovery of the bombs, but after their contents were tested, confirmed, and then compared to earlier strains of said contents. WMD.

TWO media outlets carried the story online: USATODAY and CANOE, Canada (Canoe's link no longer works).

Not many people heard about THAT one either.

I pray that everyone is OK. God bless our troops.

Found this report concerning some of the 10th Mountain Divisions activities on November 11th. A few days too early perhaps for this event but it looks like they found some major players. Perhaps the interrogations of these guys by the Iraqi's led to the larger weapons cache talked about in the email that started this thread. My bold.

Web page containing the report

Soldiers Detain Suspected Terrorists, Seize Weapons Nov. 13, 2006 –
.......In another operation, Iraqi army and Multinational Division Baghdad soldiers seized a large weapons cache and detained three individuals in the Qa-Qaa apartment complex in Mahmudiyah, 30 kilometers south of Baghdad on Nov. 11.

Iraqi soldiers with the 2nd Battalion, 4th Brigade, 6th Iraqi Army Division, teamed up with a U.S. advisory team from 2nd Battalion, 15th Field Artillery Regiment, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division, and conducted a cordon-and-knock operation in the apartment complex.

Three 107 mm rockets, 24 82 mm mortar rounds, 17 60 mm mortar rounds, 19 60 mm mortar fuses, 100 mortar charges, two mortar tripods and aiming devices, a rocket-propelled-grenade launcher, an AK-47 assault rifle, an RPK medium machine gun, false identification cards, and four license plates were seized during the operation.

The most significant find in the cache was the discovery of 25 anti-armor improvised explosive device cover plates.

The operation was delayed briefly with the discovery of a car bomb parked near the apartment complex. An explosive ordinance team was brought in to dispose of the car bomb.

The operation was based on actionable intelligence collected from sources in the area, officials said. The detainees are in the custody of the Iraqi army for questioning.

[Earthdweller]

Has anyone heard of the local of this yet? I have a nephew in the green zone.

Allegra have you heard anything about this:

Freeper exclusive: Weapons cache demolition causes many to be sick from exposure in Baghdad

[DoughtyOne]

Thanks for posting this. I am very sorry to hear of the negative effects of this weapons cache destruction. It makes you wonder if this was more or less the plan when stored in such a mannor.

Hope the negative effects can be minimized for all concerned.
