>>> The shells are at least 10 years old, and a U.S. Army official said he suspects the ordnance was surplus from the Iran-Iraq war in the mid-1980s. Blister agents are used in chemical weapons.<<<

Indeed, a whole war was not required to find the above referenced and long ago-buried materials. Hans Blix's weapons inspection team was actually on track finding stuff like this until Bush, et. al., interrupted his work.

In fact, just prior to Bush starting the process where American soldiers began dying, Blix was in the process of determining a way to analyize the site where Saddam's son-in-law Karmel claimed most of the WMD was buried.

Anyone else find it ironic that the U.S. accepted the portion of Kamel's statement that Iraq once had a nuclear program but ignored the portion of his statement indicating that the WMD had been destroyed in buried shortly after the first Gulf War?

Actually, there was nothing ironic about it as evidenced below. You see, this war was intended.

>WMD FOUND

"The shells are at least 10 years old, and a U.S. Army official said he suspects the ordnance was surplus from the Iran-Iraq war in the mid-1980s."

If true, they were probably given to Saddam by us! Seems like they were long since forgotten about, as well.
