#2 And all the Marines doned their chem suits as a training exercise last week if I can recall correctly. I think the intel is better than these losers know. hope for a windshift. The "rebels" don't have chemical protection.

#5 This could be a reason why they wanted the germ lady released from prison.

#6 CW use by the terrorists in Falloujah will result in large civilian casualties. The Allied forces will be well protected, the Iraqi troops will be kept out of the patterns of exposure. But civilians will not be protected at all and will die in large numbers.

This will be the final blow in the terrorist actions in Iraq, for they will have shown themselves to be mass murderers, guilty of fitna in the worst way and will draw fatwha against them.

#7 Zarqawi is a chemical expert. We must use overwhelming force and set the weather conditions right.

#8 Did Zarqawi sends his jihad boys into Syria to bring back some of the 'missing' wmd's?

#10 It's a bluff, but a nice pretext for us to level the towns.

#12 if they did use such weapons the world would still say that the US was the one who used them? It's about time too stop pussy footing around these bastards and get it over with. kill the hell out of them this time instead of another peace deal.

#13 If they did use such weapons, would the world still say they didn't exist?

#15 tw and ptah - asumming its cyanide, no, thats a widely available industrial chemical, IIUC. It would have to be something more serious, sarin, VX, etc.

But at least it would reveal, once again, what shits we were dealing with. As if anybody needed reminding. Sadly, some do.
