1990 USMC lesson's learned report states that Iraqi Chemical weapons capacity was useless and that the Iranians gassed the Kurds:

Blood agents were allegedly responsible for the most infamous use of chemicals in the war — the killing of Kurds at Halabjah. Since the Iraqis have no history of using these two agents — and the Iranians do — we conclude that the Iranians perpetrated this attack. It is also worth noting that lethal concentrations of cyanogen are difficult to obtain over an area target, thus the reports of 5,000 Kurds dead in Halabjah are suspect.

Iraq's Nuclear Mirage

A new must-read book by Imad Khadduri, an Iraqi nuclear scientist from 1968-1998, who dispels all the U.S. lies about Iraq's alleged nuclear and WMD programs

"Imad Khadduri's recently-published book is incredible; so incredible that I devoted a whole page of my website to promoting it. If anyone has any doubts that Bush was deceptive about Iraq's alleged WMDs and nuclear capacity, this book will dispel the myths. Khadduri gives names, dates, facts and figures to prove that Iraq had none of the above and had not possessed any 'illegal' weapons for at least a decade before the 2003 destruction of Iraq by the U.S."
-- Malcom Lagauche

"I found the book particularly fascinating because Imad Khadduri is a 'real' person. He's not one of those exiles who have been outside of Iraq for decades and his words are painfully familiar -- especially when he discusses family bonds and the life in Iraq during the sanctions. He's very real, and very well-known and respected in Iraq.

"The book gives details of the varying nuclear and 'secret' sites that were open to inspections and discusses how the program fell apart after the war in 1991 and what happened to the documents and information gathered by the scientists for over a decade. It also discusses the fakes and the flakes, like Chalabi and Khidhir Hamza, the 'bomb-maker' who helped build the WMD case against Iraq with the help of Chalabi and a very vivid imagination.

"The book doesn't read like a dry, scientific journal ... it is an education in nuclear weapons, reactors and Iraqi culture, all at once."
-- Riverbend from Baghdad

"'No country without an atomic bomb could properly consider itself independent.' This is what Charles de Gaulle said and what could explain the tragedy of Iraq. The second richest oil country in the world has been invaded not because it has the bomb, because it hasn't. Iraq's Nuclear Mirage tells the story of how this tragedy turned Imad Khadduri into a walking hell: an Iraqi Christian Arab from the sixties generation, nurtured by Che Guevara, Regis Debray and Third World liberation's ideologies, with Master degrees in Physics from the University of Michigan, and PhD in Nuclear Reactor Technology from the University of Birmingham, devoted 30 years of his professional life to build a nuclear program for his country only to dismantle it later and suffered with his nation from the most tormenting and humiliating sanctions in the modern history of mankind that was preceded by 'weapons of mass disinformation.' The smooth chattering narrative of 'Memoirs and Delusions' is misleading; this is what the readers will discover when they reach the last two lines of the book: 'The neoconservatives have indeed succeeded in manipulating the "American Way of Life" to devour my beloved Iraq. We shall, however, resurrect, to their detriment.'"
-- Mohammed Aref, science writer, Surrey, UK
