This is the stuff that we (the US) gave him and allowed him to use 20 years ago. A worker in a chemical weapons plant could have put a few in his trunk and sold them off to get some stuff for his family when Saddam started disarming. A black market sale does not prove that he was in violation of UN mandates. I'll wait until we find some stuff that can be confirmed as a hidden stash in posession of the Iraqi government that could have posed a real thread to the US before I change my mind and decide that the pre-war intelligence was anything other than a complete fabrication or gross exaggeration of outdated information.
