I somehow doubt this. Previous to the Gulf war, the U.S
and it's German proxies, poured literally *billions* of dollars in weapons and
other military aid into their then "ally" Iraq. Now these same bastards would
have us believe that despite 10 years
of murderous and debilitating sanctions, a full blown naval blockade and ongoing
and continuous air raids, the Iraqi's have somehow miraculously rebuilt their military strength to pre 1991 levels! This so called "news" item is an obvious propaganda plant, designed to justify another war with Iraq.

Subject: Iraq Said To Have Recovered To Pre-Gulf
War WMD Level [WWW.STOPNATO.ORG.UK]
---------------------------
12-20-1
WASHINGTON (MENL) - Iraq is said to have rebuilt its weapons of mass
destruction capabilities to the level of that of that on the eve of
the 1991 Gulf war.
U.S. officials said Iraqi President Saddam Hussein began rebuilding
his WMD capabilities soon after the departure of United Nations
weapons inspectors in late 1998. They said that over the last 18
months Iraq is believed to have accelerated its strategic weapons
programs
"Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear programs
continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf War status," a letter by
10 leading members of Congress said. "We believe we must directly
confront Saddam, sooner rather than later."
The letter called on the Bush administration to make Iraq the next
target in the U.S.-led war on terrorism. The congressional leaders
said United Nations sanctions have failed. They cited Iraqi illegal
oil sales, which officials believe have funded Saddam's WMD programs.

US Says Libyan Bio-Chem
Warfare Site Concealed
Beneath Mountain
Special To World Tribune.com
12-20-1
The United States has concluded that Libya built a weapons of mass
destruction facility in a huge underground lair.
U.S. intelligence sources said Libya built a chemical weapons site
near Tarhuna. The facility, the sources said, is located under a
mountain.
Libya obtained help in the construction of the facility from
Pyongyang. North Korea is known to be a leading expert in the
construction of underground sites and tunnels meant to conceal
missiles and WMD for several nations in the region, Middle East
Newsline reported.
The sources said U.S. spy satellites first detected the construction
of the facility in 1997. Within three years, officials determined it
as a chemical weapons factory and that work on it had been
completed.
The U.S. intelligence community, the sources said, has not
determined whether the facility became operational. The sources
cited the United Nations embargo on Tripoli as well as low oil
rices, which limited Libya's funding for military and strategic
programs.
ut the sources said the Tarhuna facility is believed to have once
again been the target of development in the aftermath of the UN
decision to lift sanctions from Tripoli in 1999.
The sources said the regime of Col. Moammar Khaddafy has been
negotiating with European firms for dual-use equipment that could
help Libya's chemical weapons program.
The sources said the Bush administration is reviewing the Tarhuna
project as part of the U.S.-led war on terrorism. They said it would
be difficult to destroy the chemical weapons facility without a
grund invasion.
