| The Washington Post reports the shells, which Libya had filled with mustard gas, were discovered in recent weeks at two sights in central Libya. The Post cites unnamed US and Libyan officials. |

| #3 I believe they are still classed as a chemical weapon, unfilled or not. But yes, it's 'small potoates' and the timing does seem rather odd. |

| #2 Weak tea here. The Iranians had learned to manufacture these things for the Iran Iraq war, where Iraq started using chemical weapons on Iran. That they had some unfilled shells left over and then got rid of them by selling them to Libya is more like proof that they wanted to get rid of the things. It was the Libyans who filled them up with the nasty. Who sold them the precursor chemicals? Germans? Probably. Those are the people who need to get a spanking. |
