Something is in the wind, precautionary tactics are the order of the day.

DEBKAfile’s military sources report:
US troops in Iraq ordered to start carrying gas masks this week and stay within reach of centers distributing anti-contamination suits. This week’s NATO summit and sovereignty transfer in Iraq believed high danger points.

#6  AzCat, point well taken. The Iranian and the Saudis, #1 & #2 OPEC exports and both HUGE ongoing financial support for the two main factions of Islamic fanaticism against western civilization. Wahhabi & Shi'ite.

Syria & her vassal state of Lebanon infested with Hizballah, are under Iran's branch coupled with Iranian support for Hamas.

While Osama & the world-wide al-Qa'ida terror network are in effect the creation of the House of Fraud. (Sa'ud)

#5  Take out the Saudis and the Iranians and the rest will collapse on their own.

#4  One, just one chemical attack against our troops (Coalition forces in general) will bring down the full wrath of allied military might on those responsible. If the trail extends to either Iran or Syria ..so be it.

Iraq & Afghanistan are two dominoes which are no longer under the governing control of the enemy. The other major terrorist dominos are Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia & the Sudan.

#3  How about: "If we hadn't pursued this war based on WMD lies, they wouldn't need to acquire them"?

#2  The thought of how a chem attack against US troops would be spun by the Democratic media leaves me sputtering in incoherence.

#1  This, along with other article about chemical attack in green zone, is serious cause for concern. It wouldn't surprise me if the qaeda/baathist types have been holding some of this stuff in reserve to conduct major attacks at or immediately following the transfer of sovereignty. (this is sludj on a different computer)
