Nerve gas bomb explodes in Iraq
An artillery round containing a small amount of the nerve gas sarin
has exploded in Iraq.
Brig Gen Mark Kimmitt said the blast caused a small release of the
substance, and two people were treated for exposure to the agent.
The substance was found in an artillery shell inside a bag discovered
by a US convoy a few days ago, he said.
It appears to be the first evidence of nerve gas existing in Iraq
since the start of the US-led war last year.
The BBC's security correspondent Frank Gardner says the implications,
especially psychological, for the use of such a substance by
terrorists are potentially huge.
Gen Kimmitt said the dispersal of the nerve agent from a device such
as the homemade bomb was "limited".
"The former regime had declared all such rounds destroyed before the
1991 Gulf War," he said.
The toxic nerve gas is 20 times as deadly as cyanide.
A drop the size of a pin-head can kill a person by effectively
crippling their nervous system.

PHEW! We knew there had to be at least one left!

This explains the sudden visit by the donald. I wonder if Don Rumsfield was
strong enough to carrier the bomb in is bag?
