You are parroting propaganda. Poison gas is NOT considered a WMD. That propaganda term was manufactured by the neocons in the early 1990's when they began their Middle East takeover campaign. Only nuclear weapons are considered mass murder weapons. Poison gas is mostly a psychological weapon - a very inefficient military weapon. Modern high tech explosives (as used by the US) are much more efficient killers of soldiers and civilians. BTW, even cursory research shows Saddam's poison gas program was encouraged and facilitated by the US during the Iraq/Iran war when the US adopted Saddam as its proxy to fight the Ayatollahs. flw www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
