Yet Even More Sarin
Citizen Smash has an analysis of the Sarin shell found in Iraq. Key:
The artillery shell discovered earlier this week, according to General Kimmitt, contained a "mix-in-flight" binary chemical warhead. This type of warhead. . .was not used in the Iran-Iraq war, and was not included by Saddam in his 1991 weapons declaration.
And concludes:
Sometime between 1988-95, Saddam developed and manufactured sophisticated, "mix-in-flight" binary chemical weapons.
He failed to declare these weapons, as required, to UN weapons inspectors.
Iraq did not destroy all of its chemical weapons.
A stockpile of artillery shells, including at least some that contain chemical warheads, has been found by "insurgents" in Iraq.

To wit, the shell that was found could not have been a holdover from the Iran-Iraq war. Rather, the warhead was part of a program of WMD development that was hidden from weapons inspectors and not declared.
And for those of you who are scoring at home, Smash is doing the Haiku thing. . .nifty!
