Iran agrees Iraq hid arms
|
I gotta go back to making Washington Times a daily read...
An Iranian government official with ties to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei says Tehran sides with the Americans on one big issue â Saddam Hussein's weapons. "Yes, we agree with the Americans. Our intelligence indicated that Iraq did possess weapons of mass destruction and was hiding them from the U.N.," the official said.
| Ummm... Careful where you're stepping there. That's my jaw on the floor... |
The official, from the top ranks of Iran's cleric-led government, asked to remain anonymous amid escalating tensions between Washington and Tehran. He went on to say that the big question is, "What did the Iraqis do with these weapons?"
Although Tehran does not know where these weapons may be today, there is a strong suspicion that some may have filtered onto local black markets. "We know other items, once under military control [such as broadcast transmission equipment], have found their way onto the black market," the official said. "We have people coming to Tehran from Baghdad with catalogs of items [stolen from the Iraqi government] offering them for sale." So far, the official said, no chemical, biological or related weapons have turned up.
