| Fox News (Abridged) ...Despite the tough rhetoric — and the holiday — Iraq continued to destroy banned missiles to comply with a U.N. order. At least two Al Samoud 2 missiles were being crushed north of Baghdad on Tuesday, Information Ministry official Odai al-Taie said. A missile launcher was being destroyed as well, he said. Hiro Ueki, spokesman for the inspectors who are supervising the destruction, confirmed the destruction of missiles was continuing but wouldn't give details. Since Saturday, Iraq had already destroyed 16 of about 100 Al Samoud 2 missiles. It also has been slicing up casting chambers used to make another missile, unearthing bombs and sending scientists to talk with U.N. weapons inspectors — all in a desperate effort to prove it is disarming before a crucial U.N. report at the end of the week. Workers have unearthed buried bombs they say are loaded with anthrax, aflatoxin and botulin toxin, and inspectors are analyzing the contents. Iraq is readying a letter to the United Nations that proposes verifying it has gotten rid of anthrax and deadly VX nerve agent. Oh?!.... you meant thoooose 'weapons of mass destruction'(TM)... sorry about that... Wonder why these bio/chem weapons haven't gotten more coverage? The missles get all the media attention... |
