1st chemical attack by terrorists in Iraq?
2004-06-26
From World Net Daily...
A day after the head of the CIA weapons inspection team warned that terrorists in Iraq are trying to get their hands on the Saddam Hussein regime's chemical weapons of mass destruction, Joseph Farah's G2 Bulletin reports the first attack with these weapons of mass destruction has been launched inside Baghdad's Green Zone. Few details are available, including any casualties associated with the attack using mustard gas. The sources say the munitions were old, but still potentially lethal. "I think it's safe to say our little friends know where the cache is now," said one source sardonically.
Haven't seen anything else on this. If it's true, it'll be a biggy...

#8  GM gas is not all that dangerous, it's much heavier that the atmospheric mix and tends to collect at ankle height. It's greenish-red and smells like the Nablus casabah.

#7  Looks like there might be something there. Debka's reporting U.S. troops on chem alert.

#6  Actually the reason for the alerts is that atmospheric dispersion models indicate a high concentration of Gore-Moore gas moving towards the Middle East.

#5  Even Debka's right once in a while...well, actually they've been picking up some good stuff lately.

#4  I don't agree a whole lot with Farah, he takes some really strange positions. But they do get alot of their stories from other news agencies and given the increasing finds of this nature though, this wouldn't surprise me if it turns out to be true.

#3  I don't think they do any original reporting. They get a lot of stuff from Joe Farrah, which this one comes from. I don't consider either a great source.
