I wish that was true - but I rather think that the charge will be levied even if the US do find a genuine chemical/biological weapon's cache.

There have been too many public revelations of 'falsified information' (esp.from the UK) for any claim in the future to be taken seriously. (Most notable was the 'Fake Nuclear document' See: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...-2003Mar7.html and Britains 'thesis plagiarism' scandal.)

The only way that the outside world will believe that SH does indeed have WMD's is if they are actually used on the battlefield. And that is definately *NOT* the way that I'd like the US to prove their case.
