Troops will cope. Now that they know that such weapons exist, they can take appropriate precautions. What is the greater threat, however, is the effect these weapons would have on Iraqi bystanders. It would be devistating. And, if knowingly deployed by the insurgents, would display beyond the shadow of a doubt, their callousness. Significantly, this could justify, in one accidental blunder, the entire war. Not that I think it makes a difference now... Does anyone remember whatever became of those warheadless(?) artillery rockets found during the Offensive, of the type naturally used for chemical warfare?
