which turned out to be true according to wikileaks

According to Wired Magazine, "WikiLeaks may have just bolstered one of the Bush administration’s most controversial claims about the Iraq war: that Iran supplied many of the Iraq insurgency’s deadliest weapons and worked hand-in-glove with some of its most lethal militias. The documents indicate that Iran was a major combatant in the Iraq war, as its elite Quds Force trained Iraqi Shiite insurgents and imported deadly weapons like the shape-charged explosively formed penetrator bombs into Iraq for use against civilians, Sunni militants and U.S. troops."

 

How does saying that Iran provided the Iraq insurgents with explosives, after we toppled Saddam Hussein, prove that Saddam had biological weapons, and the capacity to make more?

WikiLeaks’ newly-released Iraq war documents reveal, U.S. troops continued to find chemical weapons labs, encounter insurgent specialists in toxins, and uncover weapons of mass destruction…

…In August 2004, for instance, American forces surreptitiously purchased what they believed to be containers of liquid sulfur mustard, a toxic “blister agent” used as a chemical weapon since World War I. The troops tested the liquid, and “reported two positive results for blister.” The chemical was then “triple-sealed and transported to a secure site” outside their base.

Three months later, in northern Iraq, U.S. scouts went to look in on a “chemical weapons” complex. “One of the bunkers has been tampered with,” they write. “The integrity of the seal [around the complex] appears intact, but it seems someone is interesting in trying to get into the bunkers.”

Meanwhile, the second battle of Fallujah was raging in Anbar province. In the southeastern corner of the city, American forces came across a “house with a chemical lab … substances found are similar to ones (in lesser quantities located a previous chemical lab.” The following day, there’s a call in another part of the city for explosive experts to dispose of a “chemical cache.”

 

All of which seem to be isolated incidents involving small amounts -- of chemicals, not biological agents. Again, that hardly backs up Colin Powell's erroneous statement about biological weapons.

I don't blame him too much though; apparently he was going by the briefings he was given. GIGO... garbage in, garbage out.

 

Saddam obviously had the chemical weapons, hence all the dead Kurds. Most went to Syria, IMHO, on Russian trucks.

The quote from Colin Powell was about biological weapons. Bringing up chemical weapons or anything else is completely irrelevant....

 

technically couldn't iraqui soldiers be considered biological weapons?
