WMD Update

NPR's Anne Garrels (audio link) is reporting that sarin nerve gas has been found in Fallujah. Considering it was found in a briefcase - four packages with 10 vials in each package - it will be viewed with some skepticism. When did it get in to the country, who brought it in, etc?

It does raise and support opinions about WMDs - they are easily transported and small amounts can be - and are - lethal. Whatever WMDs were in Iraq prior to the war on terror, they easily could have been buried or transported to other countries. Because they weren't immediately found in Iraq, does not mean they didn't exist: i.e. Bush lied.
