A dozen barrels found, initial testing indicates the nerve agents GA (Tabun) and GB (Sarin), and Lewisite (a blister agent)...

Radio report on NPR (sorry, no cite yet, just heard it myself) from a reporter on the scene that U.S. forces found 122mm BM-21 rockets with warheads loaded with chemical agents...

U.S. troops MAY have already fallen ill due to exposure while investigating a possible WMD site:

Not a surprise, and this find will turn out to be insignificant compared to what's to come.

Things should get interesting. With Baghdad Intl. open, if the WMD's are found/used, I suspect that German ABC units deployed in Kuwait, if released by German gov.org, can be airlifted to the area quite rapidly. German Military doubled the size of the Fuchs vehicle ABC contingent in Kuwait last week. The U.S. really wanted these units to go in with them from the start.

Well imagine that. The US was right. Who'd'a thunk it? :rolleyes:

I'm glad we found it in barrels, and not being used on our and Britain's troops.

Actually, this is a dupe. There is a pretty good thread with cites here. (http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=17328)
