'Chemical weapons' found in Iraq

[Sternly]

Danish troops have found dozens of mortar rounds in southern Iraq which could contain chemical weapons according to initial tests.
The 36 120mm shells appeared to have been buried for at least 10 years, the army said.

All showed traces of blister gases, the army said, a group of chemical compounds which include mustard gas.

The comments are published on the Danish army website, according to Reuters news agency.

[Professor Peedston]

did everybody else (except for musiclover, whose name i can never seem to remember) miss the second sentence in the article?

"However, US officials played down the find, saying the shells were probably left over from Saddam Hussein's 1980-88 war with Iran."

you KNOW they didn't find anything significant if the US doesn't even want to trumpet it to the world.
