Its laughable that anyone would take technology from 1917 (mustard gas) as a serious weapons system - much less a legitimate WMD.

The US has 10,000 nuclear devices. JDAMs (considered "conventional" weaponry) obliterate every living thing within its target range - usually a square mile or two. That’s a little more effective than mustard gas - where a mask (standard issue) renders it a useless weapon. The US military has used these weapons extensively.

Its hypocritical and misleading to get excited about some old gas shells. Its ridiculous to propose that was justification for the invasion of Iraq.
