Uh oh, The Associated Press is now making up WMD BS.......<gg> Find 'could be chemical labs' From correspondents in New York April 15, 2003 ELEVEN containers buried near an artillery ammunition plant in southern Iraq could be dual-use chemical and biological laboratories, US Army General Ben Freakly has said. The 6 metre by 6 metre metal containers, which could be attached to semi-trucks or railway cars, were found by members of the 101st Airborne in Karbala. About 450 kilograms of documentation were also found at the site, Freakly told CNN. There was no evidence of weapons. US Secretary of State Colin Powell, in speeches to Congress and the UN Security Council, said earlier this year that intelligence reports showed mobile laboratories capable of producing weapons of mass destruction were being driven around Iraq. But chief UN weapons inspector Hans Blix said later that inspectors had found no evidence of such mobile labs. There have been previous reports of chemical weapons that turned out to be false alarms, including a site about 100km south of Karbala where military officials initially believed they had discovered a nerve agent. Testing showed the substance was a high-grade pesticide. The Associated Press news.com.au
