You really, truly, are a moron.

No one ever denied Saddam Hussein had some stockpiles of aging chemical
weaponry stashed. But those old chems were not the justification for the
Bush-Cheney invasion, and their existence and discovery was never a secret.

The secret was the harm these old weapons were causing U.S. troops and
the subsequent failure of the Bush-Cheney administration to provide
medical treatment and rehab to the victims among the U.S. troops.

Keep your dirty little secrets to yourself.

Did you read that CIA report I linked the other day?

It turns out they had cracked into a weapons facility that the UN was
supposed to have sealed for all time. They removed chemical weapons
and precursor chemicals that were so numerous that destruction was not
deemed to be practical..
It is clear that he had these weapons or that they were spirited off
to Syria.
Most chemical weapons are trivial for a state actor to make anyway.
All they need is an insecticide factory. There is not much difference
between what we use to kill bugs and WMD.



Naw. Didn't read it.

I have a friend, a smart guy who should have known better, who mixed up
a home brew of herbicides and insecticides to take care of a "pest
problem" in part of his front yard. The spray got on his leg and started
eating through his skin. He ended up spending 27 days at Johns Hopkins,
the big time hospital up in Baltimore for treatment, and is still
dealing with the aftereffects. Six figure hospital bill. Yikes!

We don't use any insecticides around here and if herbicides are used,
they're applied by the lawn service guys and we stay off the grass for a
couple of days. If my wife spies an ant or beetle in the house, she
picks it up on a piece of paper and escorts it outside. I'm not sure
what she'd do if she found a roach, but so far that hasn't happened.
Twice in the decade+ we've been here, a mouse found its way in, and both
times our cats dispatched the rodents. I think the word is out to
mouseville.
