True, but a statement by Iraq accounting for over 30,000 liters of WMD does testify to Saddam's manufacturing capability.
Iraq has tons of chemical weapons

From the article:
"Iraq continues to possess several tons of chemical weapons agents, enough to kill thousands and thousands of civilians or soldiers," said Jon Wolfsthal, an analyst with the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.
U.N. weapons experts have said Iraq may have stockpiled more than 600 metric tons of chemical agents, including mustard gas, VX and sarin. Some 25,000 rockets and 15,000 artillery shells with chemical agents are also unaccounted for, the experts said."
...
"Iraq told the United Nations in 1995 it had produced 30,000 liters of biological agents, including anthrax and other toxins it could put on missiles.
U.N. officials say the actual amount may be three or four times greater." |
