Here Tim, I took 5 minutes & found these links (see
below)...... there were at least 20 more on Google News
FWIW.

BTW, note the bolded passage below & also consider that
this place had an Iraqi general in charge, plus a large
barracks for troops..... It was not declared to the UN, as
all such facilities were to be fully & completely declared
to the UN under several resolutions........ Oh & there was
a bunch of awfully fierce fighting in that area today. Now
what do you think that heavily camouflaged, heavily
guarded, 100 acre chemical facility, surrounded with an
electrical fence was producing?

Seriously????????
