That article seems questionable to me. The article says "Engineering experts from the Defense Intelligence Agency have come to believe that the most likely use for two mysterious trailers found in Iraq was to produce hydrogen for weather balloons rather than to make biological weapons, government officials say."
However, the only actual quote they put in from a gov't official is "The team has decided that in their minds, there could be another use, for inefficient hydrogen production, most likely for balloons," a Defense Department official said.
So the official is saying that the team decided that there MIGHT be another use, although an inefficient one, and because of this statement the author of the article decides to portray that it was determined that the trailers were NOT BW facilities and ONLY for hydrogen production? Seems slanted, IMO.
