Talk about hiding something where you would
least expect it.
The FBI was called in to remove the substances, which were discovered
last Friday and included phosgene, an older generation chemical warfare agent,
taken in 1996 by inspectors from a former Iraqi chemical weapons plant at Al
Muthanna, the inspectors said in a statement.
Phosgene was used extensively during World War I as a choking agent,
according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control.
But I thought the Iraqi's didn't have any WMDs according to Hans Blix? You would figure that the UN would want to destroy WWI choking agents that turns water your
respiratory tract into hydrochloric acid. It sounds like nasty stuff and it shouldn't be in some UN storage facility.
