by Coalition forces would you believe it? Or would you consider it made up or a plant.
If Chemical weapons were found......

It's tough to say if it was made up or not. What worries me is that even if the US finds WMD, will the world believe it. Only time will tell.
Id believe it. I also think our national interests would be well served if we brought in UN weapon inspectors for third party confirmation.
I believe that there is a way to check through DNA analysis.
The US has certain strains and other countries have other strains, so it is not as simple as just taking some of ours and bringing it to Iraq. Chem-weapons are a little easier to "plant" IMO.

It looks as if we may have.
This morning in a military facility near Karbala.
Drums have been found containing what preliminary tests indicate may be nerve and blister agents.
Samples are on their way for conclusive testing.

Hopefully it isn't more pesticide...
This morning it was reported as Sarin and Mustard gas loaded on warheads and mounted on missiles. Now it is pesticide in drums? 
Both are possibilities, time will tell.

I think these may be seperate issues, the 'storage facility' story still seems like it might pan out.Originally posted by Spud

Caution LIBERAL NPR Link
Soldiers with the Army's 101st Airborne Division discover what they believe to be an Iraqi storage site for chemical warheads, U.S. commander says. Describing the discovery as a potential "smoking gun," the official says soldiers found in a warehouse outside Baghdad about 20 medium-range rockets with warheads containing sarin and mustard gases.
I'd believe it-- but the US is in a position where it HAS to find them, whether they're there or not, so the find will always be questionable. Unless I go over there myself and get to sniff around the drums. "Oh jeez, that's Iraqi sarin!"

"Oh Norm, if I had a Mohawk scalp I wouldn't be sittin' here talkin' to you. I'd be relaxing on a tropical island!"
"Why's that?"
"Because...... They're highly valuable. Mohawk!? You can't find one of those!"
Did you see the one with Joan Allen? That was the funniest of all of them.

There's more!? I think Will Ferrell needs to permanently assume that character.
