"The US troops in Iraq will not find any facilities with weapons of mass destruction, I am sure of that" -- so says, [an anonymous] former chemical and biological weapons expert of the UN Special Commission (UNSCOM)... "[The weapons] could be in railroad cars, barges or refrigerator trucks. They are being kept on the move," explained the former official... The most likely attack would come from more than "800 unaccounted 155mm artillery shells which may contain mustard gas." ...Saddam may still possess small drone aircraft capable of delivering these weapons in aerosolized form... "My guess is that the probability of a WMD attack is small," says the former UNSCOM official... "Right now, Saddam has 80 percent of the world supporting him. If he used WMD, that support would dissolve. So, he has no incentive. Even if he did, it would not cause enough damage to change anything. About the only thing he may accomplish is to scare you reporters." Supposedly, German companies sold mobile weapons labs to Iraq; some think they might have been since destroyed. I have several other links about these labs in this post. Posted By Lonewacko at March 27, 2003 03:50 AM | TrackBackComments
As previously reported here, one supposed Iraq plan is to use WMD and blame their use on the Coalition. Posted by: Lonewacko at March 27, 2003 03:55 AMSaddam could care less about world opinion. It's clear that world opinion at this point can do nothing to prevent his demise, so why would he care what the rest of the world thinks? Even when he wasn't facing down imminent air and ground attacks, he demonstrated time and again that he wouldn't be constrained by the rest of the world's opinion (eg, using poison gas on the Kurds, invading Kuwait, taking hostages in the first Gulf War, executing POWs in this war, refusing to comply with UN disarmament resolutions, etc.).

"Right now, Saddam has 80 percent of the world supporting him." Kind of all you need to know about these jack@#$es. Posted by: Mark Casper at March 27, 2003 05:27 AMPost a comment
